I've been using Linux for a while, but I've run into a lot of trouble with my SSD getting corrupted and my HDD having bad sectors, which is messing with my important files. I recently built a budget PC but ran into compatibility issues with an NVIDIA 1050 Ti GPU. Data transfer speeds from any device drop from 60 MB/s to just 4 MB/s, and it just gets worse with larger files. I've even had problems running certain programs on Linux that corrupt my files. I want to switch back to Windows 10 as I think it might help with drive repair tools, especially since I still have my 1 TB HDD as a backup. I was trying to make a bootable USB to install Windows, but I've hit roadblocks, including errors like "invalid verification" when my BIOS doesn't recognize my attempts. I need some help figuring out how to create a bootable USB for Windows 10 installation—I'm really tired of researching this and just want to get back to normal!

Reinstalling Windows isn’t going to fix the hardware problems you’re experiencing. If your drives have bad sectors or are corrupted, it’s crucial to back up any recoverable data right now and consider getting new drives. Software can’t patch up failing hardware. Just a heads up—if you bought second-hand drives, they might already be a ticking time bomb. Just be cautious before you proceed with Windows again!
