Hi all, I have recently installed Windows 10 (which failed horrendously leaving me in a crash loop) which has caused me to have to buy a new HDD (wd blue). So I still had my Win 8 install disk which still worked, saving 100 dollars I installed Win 8 on the computer and it began working. However not sure whether i've done stuff wrong but I have gotten many blue screens which include: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA etc. I didn't install all the Windows updates to begin with and when I installed steam and installed Dota 2 it said that I couldn't install it and some files were corrupt. I googled this and it said I needed to install the Intel Rapid storage driver, what happened? It said my system didn't meet minimum requirements. My specs are...
Intel Core i5 3570
H77 Asrock mobo
H60 corsair AIO water cooler which I haven't checked in a while
WD blue 1tb
8 GB Corsair vengeance ram 1600MHZ
Win 8
Also when I attempted to install win 8.1 it said I needed to install more updates, so I check for more and there are none, instead it pops up with an error which I also needed Intel rapid storage for. So I am resetting the PC at the moment and having a fresh start, I may need instructions on what to do after the reset.
Thanks for reading.
