Question Upgraded CPU, boots in safe mode but freezes in regular

[daniyald700]

Hello, I upgraded my i3-8100 to an i5-9600k and have gotten a problem. When I start my PC, it begins to load, but after 1-2 minutes, the PC freezes and I have to restart again. However, when I boot in Safe Mode, everything works fine. I've already tried reinstalling the CPU to no avail. What could the problem be? Thanks

Incompatible drivers, corrupted drivers, or perhaps hardware.
Reinstalling Windows is usually the next step.

I'll put in the old CPU and see if I can download new drivers for the CPU, if that doesn't work I'll reinstall Windows

That's backwards, as reinstalling Windows will wipe all the drivers, and you'll have to reinstall them again anyways.
