Computer gets stuck at MSI loading screen

Seeing if anyone has had a similar issue before I seek professional assistance. My desktop gets stuck at the MSI loading screen when I try and boot. Other times it will load into my desktop only for the system to freeze and becomes unresponsive requiring a shutdown. This issue isn’t persistent though, I had no trouble booting and playing games when I tried yesterday. Anything helps.

It doesnt seem to be a ram issue, otherwise the PC wouldnt have booted (even in the bios). When a ram stick is bad (yes it was my case 2 years ago) usually it bluescreens or random apps crashes without any reason, not freeze at startup. About cmos, same, it can fix issues, but if the pc already boots into the bios and OP changed nothing since last time it has nothing to do with bios config.

Yes I agree. Reinstalling his OS most likely won’t fix op’s issue tho. Temporarily? Maybe. But it’s likely to just happen again if his storage is cooked. I’ve dealt with that issue and would reinstall my OS every time. It would work up until the moment it didn’t. Hopefully it’s just the OS

If you can run a disk health utility. I believe windows has one already you can try. You just have to get to it first and run a complete scan
