So, a few weeks ago I built my own PC.
Here are the specs:
MSI GTX 960 2gb
Intel Core i5 4460
ASRock H97 Anniversary Motherboard
G.Skill Sniper 8gb Ram
EVGA 500w Power supply
Windows 8.1 Professional

It has been running great until recently, I've had some massive FPS drops in the past couple days . Windows has been running a little glitchy, and booting to a black screen at start up. My games that I could run at 125 FPS (Mx Simulator) are now running at 20-40fps. I'm not sure what has happened in the past couple of days, but I have tried reseating the GPU on the motherboard, and even checking the CPU fan to see if it's seated properly.

Anyone offer some advice? Reinstalling widows is the last thing I want to do.

I ran a driver sweeper earlier, and reinstalled the most recent nvidia update. It didn't do anything for me. Disk 0 is at 100% for some reason, and my CPU is running at only 0.74 Ghz, when it is clocked at 3.2 Ghz
