So evga precision destroyed your windows install. Not good.


Yes it appears so.  I don't think it did anything funky but it had it's hooks too far into the OS.  Like I said I renamed those server files and hacked the exe files so they wouldn't boot up, restarted the PC and from there that's when it said the hell with me and left, lol  The reset option did what it was suppose to do but we'll see how the OS ended up.

I have to ask 529th why did you not just uninstall EVGA Precision OCX?
 
Have done this at least 20 times of the last year and never had this type of a problem.
Renaming Files like this now hope you know is not a wise thing to do!
You say you do or do not have a backup Image to restore your OS?
 
Do you maybe think the Real Bench and Pascal GPU just do not get alone together?

I believe the system was stable and that there was an issue between the XOC and Real Bench. The one outstanding variable was that with my other ram kit things were stable with both the previous 6.0.7. version installed and Real Bench.   I was going to leave XOC installed and remove the server files.. .  I didn't want the two server executable running with the XOC app, I think I might have just been using the wrong Precision, I think there is another Precision X app that doesn't have the options to upload and share things to a community bench board. 
 
I never keep a backup for things like the OS.. even on my main rig.  The reset worked OK but I might just dump it as it was an upgrade from Windows 7 64b Pro, and just pickup Windows 10 Pro 64b.  I have two machines that I upgraded from Windows 7 64b Pro and one is still a little different than the other like the windows defender icon is different on my main rig than the game rig, the game rig still has the old icon where the main rig has some blue looking icon with a shield or some sort.. never really looked into why it just appeared that way after a system update so i figured it would eventually appear that way on my game rig, build.

I will continue to use that method to disable garbage files from executing rather than let them run

You have been warned!
You do know most of the garbage files that start up with Windows can be turned of under regedit.

So I'm 99% up and running again (reset things twice) and now I'm debating what Precision app to install.  What app is best, the Precision XOC or Precision X ?

Precision XOC is for the 1xxx Cards and Precision X is not and is for 5xx/6xx/7xx/9xx Cards

Gonna take a wild guess here but I think XOC is screwing my Creative Zx Control Panel..
