Hi. I had fresh clean install of Windows 10 Pro in MBR scheme . I want to know what caused this.

Almost everytime when i was clicking start test in 3dmark 11, my system become unresponsible and laggish. I cant do almost everything. I cant restart system because START button stop working.
Opening some file taking 10 second. I must force hard reset to work properly again system. Almost everytime
when i was clicking run test in 3dmark 11 causing this issue. After long wait i was ablee to check usage of cpu ,ram and disk, and was 0%.
So where was the problem? Software , my disk or ram?

Disk was formatted due to MBR partition.

My disk is Samsung Evo 250 GB , and 2x8gb Kingston Hyperx 1600mhz.

Smart on disk is fine, GOOD status in Samsung MAgician and no errors in HD TUNE. Memtest86 not showing errors.

After format to GPT and install again Windows 10 all is fine and working properly. Just want to know what caused issue before format. Thx. It was related to windows/software or hardware?

I made topic because some people told me that this issue was caused by faulty ssd.

Here is what he said:


"
had a crucial SSD once do this,
randomly says files are corrupted, and for example, fails to load user profile, and slow down when reading some files, and then later they work fine.

when some data fails to read on one day, and then the next day it is read fine, it is 99% likely to be the ssd.

in my case it was 100% hardware issue, specifically the ssd.

many SSDs are know to slow down over time, usually in certain regions of thr drive, sometime the slow down can be so severe that data fail to be read completly.

in my experience, when some data fails to read on one day, and then the next day it is read fine, it is 99% likely to be the ssd. "



So what you think? That issue with system slowdown when i was clicking start test in 3dmark 11 was caused by ssd or software?

And i am worried that was caused by my SSD:(Ehhh . Should i buy new? Please answer me. I am serious worried , and i am thiking to replace my SSD after this post.
 
You said it's working fine now after your reinstall, correct? Nothing to worry about then unless it starts to act up again.
 
Correct it working fine after reinstall. I ask because i want to be sure that ssd is ok.

I know that after format is ok, but why it was get slowdown in system when starting test in 3dmark 11?
He said that is symptoms of failing ssd.


Somebody said to me : "
says files are corrupted, and for example, fails to load user profile, and slow down when reading some files, and then later they work fine." And he said that was issue of ssd 100%.

Looks like a software issue right now. Did you look through event viewer before you reinstalled to see if anything was coming up in the logs?

Unless the issue comes back again, you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
 
So you're asking what caused a problem that you have since not been able to replicate, just because someone you don't know on a forum somewhere told you there might be a problem with your ssd even though you can't find one yourself using all the diagnostic tools that would identify an ssd fault?

Did you experience any oxygen starvation at birth? Were you dropped often as a baby? Did your parents have the same surname before they married? Have you ever overdosed on prescription or other drugs? I'm just trying to get a better understanding of your unique set of needs so I can tailor my advice accordingly.
 
But somebody said to me this: "One of GPT's features is better reliability for its partition info: "On an MBR disk, the partitioning and boot data is stored in one place. If this data is overwritten or corrupted, you’re in trouble. In contrast, GPT stores multiple copies of this data across the disk, so it’s much more robust and can recover if the data is correupted. GPT also stores cyclic redundancy check (CRC) values to check that its data is intact — if the data is corrupted, GPT can notice the problem and attempt to recover the damaged data from another location on the disk. MBR had no way of knowing if its data was corrupted — you’d only see there was a problem when the boot process failed or your drive’s partitions vanished.
If your Samsung Evo 250 GB drives need refreshing or formatting that often, it's time for new SSDs that don't have that problem.
"
"



So maybe it is something with my SSD if it get corrupted on MBR partition and needs refreshing? Like i said on GPT partition all is fine.





This:" — if the data is corrupted, GPT can notice the problem and attempt to recover the damaged data from another location on the disk. MBR had no way of knowing if its data was corrupted "
