I loaded windows 10 on a new SSD drive and once it started, the computer would freeze. What now? How do I fix this issue? I have googled possibilities and even checked the drive under properties and tools. Any ideas?
 
Solution
make sure the mb has the newest bios file to rule out bios bug. make sure the ssd on the intell sata port 0. with newer intel mb soem of the ports can be turned off if nve or other type of storage drive is turned on in the bios. make sure the newest intel chipset drivers are installed. same for mei drivers and all the other mb drivers. with all that ram try one ram stick if the pc works try 16g of ram and run memtest on it from a boot usb stick. if it fine swap the ram. if your running 4 sticks of ram you may have to boots the dram voltages a bit.
Bios states computer is running at normal, no overheating. The compomp is a year old that I built. Asus Z170 board Gskull 32gigs ram, water cooler. Sweet unit but then it started acting up and died. Intel i7 6700 processor.
