Hi there,
For the last year i haven't had any problems with my pc in terms of crashing,etc.But a couple of weeks ago my pc started to crash playing pubg.It was a crash every 2 days but it started to get worse.I've got to the, point were just opening steam my pc crashes.But now i'm getting the problem were my pc won't even load up.Is this just a steam problem or is it a problem with one of the pc components?
 
Solution
If you're reinstalling, then you had to wipe, in which case any comments about space on drive are probably moot. Wiping should incidentally also address most of the issues you're having as you'll update everything fresh and reinstall steam and games, so if you're still having trouble, drop a line, but I'm guessing you should be ok.

If your pc won't load up, safe to say you have bigger issues than just steam though they may be connected. How much space on your hard drive? Did you install any updates as of late (and the answer to this should be yes as I know automatic updates has been busy lately prepping for the big new windows version upgrade)? Can you still get into bios? Can you load up windows in safe mode?

Less than 15% free space on hd is not recommended as system needs it for swap files, caching, defrag and stuff. You're at 20% free left. Clean up some when you get it back up. First you need to get access.

Can you get into bios? Or safe mode? Can you access it at all?
