Well I'm pretty much out of ideas. If it started with Windows 10, it would be easy to assume that it's a Windows issue, but why would going back to Windows 8 not help? Does Windows make changes in the NVRAM or anywhere else which might cause the observed behaviour and would not get changed back by Windows 8? It just sounds so weird that it makes me think it's just a coincidence that the symptoms started after installing Windows 10. But I'm no expert and I also have personal experience of Windows doing weird stuff on my ASRock motherboard*, so I'm not willing to rule out any possibility. Unfortunately, I can't really help with this either. At least the problem doesn't seem to be the CPU, which I guess is good news.

*I had to edit Windows boot options manually using bcdedit to be able to boot to grub, since booting to Windows erased the Ubuntu boot option from the BIOS/UEFI boot menu, even though the EFI partition had all the required files intact.

ya i never seen this issue before in the 17 years of working on pc ever but Im going to have to fork out some cash to get a replacement board and test again plus im sure the board is defective when i got it and didnt show signs of it failing till i upgraded to 10 so it was just a matter of time and i think overclocking the cpu-nb just put it over the breaking point lol 

at this point im eather going to wait and deal with the freezing up and get it the same board i have now later on when i get the money for it or get a cheap board to put the fx4300 and let my wife keep the fx8350 till i get the asrock fatailty 990fx killer board replaced

not sure what i should do what do you think

Before tearing it down .......

1. Check that you are using the latest non-problematic driver for your video cards.

2. Baring that, pull the two R9 280X's and test with a different single video card.


EDITED to include "different"

BIOS > Boot tab > Full Screen Logo (set to Disabled)

Then notice if anywhere during the post process looks hinky or seems slow in continuing where it normally wouldn't be.


Have a friend youu might borrow a vid card from to test with?

Yea. I'm leaning more and more this is somehow related to your graphics cards or your drivers.

Everything I'm reading of that system file error you're getting comes out to be graphics card driver related.
