My PC build is only 4 months old, the other day I was having troubles in the sense that during the start up it would routinely crash, however, if it was successful in starting up no more troubled would persist.

I decided to do a full system reset and erase all programs and files. I then went to bed and started up my PC this morning yet the same issues persists.

I thought a system reset would solve the issue since I was getting a multitude of blue screen errors relating to Windows/system32/winload.exe.

I built the PC but I'm by no means a tech head and have no idea how to go about testing hardware and what hardware would cause the PC to crash during boot up.

Before the system reset I also ran chkdsk commands and tested the memory with no errors.

Couple of methods to try and perform a repair to see if it helps.

Make sure you have the bios updated if running a kaby lake cpu, and that all motherboard related drivers are installed/updated. It's possible you have faulty hardware, but that's usually not the case on a 4 month old build. Were all parts new?
