Sorry, if any of you notice this as a double post. I realize that this may be a more appropriate thread.

I have had recent problems. My build has been running smoothly for the past few months. I now have 2 problems.
1) My computer for some odd reason no longer boots from the SSD
2) the computer seems to freeze up after about an hour. I'm not sure if it is the time length but I only have a few programs up. Chrome, spotify, and a simple game called "stronghold kingomds hd". None of the following requires an extensive amount of cpu or ram. Yet they random "do not respond".
Boot Problem.
I have problems with it booting from my HD instead of my SSD. I continued to restart and it continues to boot from the HDD.
I went through the BIOS and reset it so that the SSD is the primary boot drive. It works but when I restart it boots through the HDD again.
Freezing
I am really not sure of what is causing this problem. It may be because I stupidly did not restart my computer for an entire week. I had some start up errors that the windows had to auto-fix. Possibly this caused corrupted data? I really have no clue.
Currently I am running with the HDD and CD drive unpluged. It works fine and boots off the SSD. I have only been on for 20 min and no program freeze ups (yet).
Does anybody have any help/suggestions? Thanks

). I'd also pop the cmos battery out wait a minute and pop it back in to reset your bios. Then if you are still getting freezes with a reset bios and fresh install, it's a hardware problem >.> and nothing in your hardware is shaddy maybe the psu but that'd be it.
