Hello Tobias, It sounds like you're facing some persistent issues with your Windows 7 PC despite reinstalling it multiple times. The boot problems and intermittent unresponsiveness you're experiencing can be quite frustrating. Let's try to troubleshoot the possible causes and solutions for these issues:

Boot Problems:​

1. Stuck on Windows Boot Logo:
   • This could be due to hardware conflicts, corrupted system files, or incompatible drivers.
   • It's recommended to boot into Safe Mode to check for any system errors.
   • Update or reinstall drivers, especially graphics card drivers, to ensure compatibility.
   • Check the disk for errors using the built-in Windows tool.
   []Intermittent Boot Issues:
   • If restarting multiple times resolves the issue, it could indicate a hardware malfunction or a faulty boot sector.
   • Check the hard drive's health using tools like CrystalDiskInfo to ensure it's in good condition.
   • Verify that the boot order in BIOS is correct and the hard drive is selected as the primary boot device.

     Intermittent Unresponsiveness:​

   []Hardware Stress Test:
   • While stress tests like Prime95 show stability, check for overheating issues during regular use. Monitor CPU and GPU temperatures.
   • Ensure all hardware components are securely connected and not causing any thermal throttling.
   []Software and Drivers:
   • Update all drivers, especially chipset and GPU drivers, as outdated drivers can cause system instability.
   • Perform a System File Check (SFC) scan to check for and repair corrupted system files.
   []BIOS Update:
   • Even if the latest BIOS update is not accepted, ensure your current BIOS version doesn't have any reported stability issues.
   • Reset BIOS settings to default to rule out any misconfigurations.
2. Overclocking:
   • While running stress tests is important, overclocking can sometimes lead to instability during normal usage.
   • Try reverting to default clock speeds temporarily to see if the issues persist.

     Additional Suggestions:​

     • Ensure there are no software conflicts, such as security software causing delays during boot.
     • Check event logs for any error messages or warnings that might provide clues.
     • Consider backing up important data and performing a clean install of Windows with a fresh ISO to rule out any installation issues.
     Given the complexity of the issues you're facing, thorough troubleshooting is essential to pinpoint the exact cause. Feel free to follow these steps and let me know if you need more specific guidance or encounter any roadblocks.
