pretty sure it's related to video (auto) playing, but it doesn't happen with youtube but my only guess is maybe it's video driver related? since that's handled on the video card isn't it?

if its decoding by video card, was there an automatic driver update recently? if not, maybe a busted software codec is the cause? in the mean time you could try something that stops autoplaying videos to keep it stable https://www.popsci.com/stop-videos-from-autoplaying#page-3

Is parted magic/knoppix the way to go to (hopefully) recover data off a drive that became uninitialized? Easeus data recovery and testdisk couldn't find a partition in windows and they both found garbage data when I attempted a recovery.

You just need a "High Speed HDMI with Ethernet" and it should support 2.0b

yeah which is why i put it in brackets just in case since i saw a whole load of bogus cables. also i do need premium high speed, rather than high speed. were it not for ethernet i could just buy from monoprice, they have the regular premium high speed
