I don't see any serious problems with your DxDiag.
Only one thing. You have Win10 that came with good antivirus program Windows Defender. You really don't need this Avast program. I see in your DxDiag it is causing some problems.
Uninstall it using Revo free uninstaller. It will clear all traces of Avast from your computer. Download a free version to don't pay for it
