Hello guys i have a pc
i5-4440S
8gb ram
1tb hdd
2gb nvidia gt710
i am currently running win7 for a month , i have tried win10 but hate it dont know why,but i quite like windows 8.1
My pc had some serious BSODs before i changed my hdd a month ago and loaded win7.
I havent experienced bsods but while i tried installing win10 on my new hdd it crashed with a bsod and my win8.1 too stopped at 75% installation.I had to run my system so win7 loaded fine.
But i like some new techy stuff and latest softwares and games.
Some games like fornite crashes too often while playing so i am considering whether i will try once again to clean install win8.1 on my c drive only,i have important files on my other hdd partitions.

P.S. This is my first moth running my pc smoothly after 2 years of frsutratiing random bsods in my machine from my hdd.So kinda relaxed using my pc freely but a bit scared to upgrade.
Win8.1 will be enough to get my new softwares runnning fine ,10 not needed

List your specs like so:

Ram:
SSD/HDD:

Chassis:
OS: Windows 7(what version and architecture?)

How old is your HDD and your PSU? Are you on the latest motherboard BIOS version? Lastly, where did you source your installation for both the OS and the games?
