Hi, I failed resetting my PC indicating "Failed to reset your PC. No changes were made." What could be the cause to that?
My PC keeps crashing and having BSOD ever since I charged my JBL speaker into the back ports
Hi All,
Yesterday, my back USB ports were automatically disabled to save energy. I renabled them to charge my portable speaker. Ever since then I keep getting tabs from google crashing, games crashing and ultimately I would get the BSOD with every time a different code: "UNEXPEXTED_STORE_EXCEPTION", "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION", more...
Please help me get this fixed,
Thank you in advance.
Please note that before all of this happened I was charging my speaker to the computer without a problem.

Clean installing Windows from a bootable USB is a big job, you will need an empty 8GB USB flash drive, if you have never done this before, it would be best to get someone there to help you with the process,.
Click this link:
https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/win...
to download the Media Creation Tool (Click on Download Tool Now), with that you can create a bootable USB flash drive (min 8GB) using that tool
Then, Boot your PC from the Installation Media you just created (change Boot Order in your BIOS) to begin installing Windows 11
During the installation process skip the steps which ask for a product key and select the option 'I am Reinstalling Windows 11 on this PC'.
