I ended up finding the culprit. Something within the AMD Adrenalin software is causing the issue. I had already performed a factory reset on the AMD Adrenalin software for my GPU as a troubleshooting step before. However, this time I performed this step but I opted out of installing the...

I was able to locate the game mode option in the windows settings. I enabled it but I am still experiencing the problems. Any other suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

I was able to find Game Bar in the Windows settings. It was off by default so I have turned it on and I will test.

My PC has 32GB of ram. All my games are purchased through Steam or CD keys purchased through 3rd parties then activated on Steam. So yes all my games are genuine. I also have a 5 inch external screen that reads out all relevant data like GPU usage, temp, cpu and so forth. The game I am currently...

Can you explain where this "game mode" is from "settings"? Are you referring to the AMD software? Windows?

There may have been some misunderstanding. I am currently using a dedicated GPU and the problem is occurring. It was stated that it might be a GPU issue. So I said I didn't have another dedicated GPU on hand to switch out for testing but I could remove the dedicated GPU and try using just my...

Thanks for the input. It definitely isn't a latency issue. Most of my games are offline with only cloud steam saves. And I can leave the game frozen for as long as I want and press the win key to get it moving again. As far as a GPU issue goes, if it is causing the issue, I would have to test...

Winver 22H2 (19045.4046) It's been at least several months since the problem started and now it's getting pretty aggressive or I'm just getting fed up with it. It seems that any game that I play, randomly the game will seem to freeze or lose focus and I have to alt-tab or press the windows key...

Update. I had performed a Synology backup before I started this whole process. So I restored the backup and was back in working condition but with the same problems of course. So I went ahead and did a bit more preparation before attempting the repair install again by unplugging all unnecessary...

Update. Since I couldn't perform the above video from FreeBooter and I couldn't find anything else to try, I went ahead and performed a repair upgrade following the instructions on this link. However, now the computer goes into a boot loop. There are currently 3 operating systems to boot to...

Thank you for your response. I have watched your video and have followed your first command in cmd with administrator right which is C:\Windows\System32>dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:C:\sources\install.esd I also tried D instead of C. However, I receive error code 3 system cannot find the path...

Thank you. However, I already stated in my OP that I have performed those steps and I am asking that before I perform a repair install that if there are any other suggestions.

winver 22H2 (OS Build 22621.2283 I noticed that I started to have Windows update issues along with using and installing other 3rd party software. Here are the steps I have taken so far. 1. I first performed the following to try and solve the Windows update issue. 1. Run Troubleshooter Open...

I do normally build my computers. However, I wasn't exactly comfortable with building a micro computer just because there isn't really a one size fits all case for micro motherboards. It's easy to just get a mid to large computer case and any motherboard fits in it and there is a motherboard...

AMD came back and said nope on warranty. The defective CPU is part of a computer sold by a company called MinisForum where I purchased it from. I've attempted to contact them on their contact form, Skype contact and their forum. No reply. It's like they are a ghost town over there or are just...
