So about a week ago my two year old ASUS G10 started acting weird. Crashes, lockups, and finally a BSOD followed by a hard drive check disk on D:.
C: is a 100 GB that only has Win10 and programs that only install to the windows drive while D: has all my different programs as well as all my trainz programs and TANE Local databases.
I was still able to play TANE up until four days ago but then it started to lockup the computer. No response to anything.
While my first thought was that the main 2TB hard drive D: was failing I'm see some odd behavior while attempting to copy all the data and etc to a new 3TB drive. Most of the time the data is transferring at above 30MB/s it occasionally drops to 0 for varying lengths of time.
It has been very hot here recently, is it possible that I've fried something (memory, motherboard, CPU)? Would this generate the hard drive error?
If I am successful in transferring everything to the new drive (currently E: ) can I disconnect the current D: drive and rename the E: drive to D: will all the shortcuts, program pointers and database pointers work?
