Windows 7 64bit "not responding" programs very frequent
Symptoms:
libreoffice 3.5 crashes all the time and says "not responding".
steam has crashed saying the same thing.
Chrome and file explorer are fine though.
Possible reason:
I have been using a new SSD for a while now (OS installed on this) and have had no problems until 2 and half weeks later.
Just installed spybot search and destroy recently also.
Solutions tried:
[Solved] Programs Not Responding - general-discussion - windows-7
And used the solution where I remove a RAM stick and set the BIOS to default settings. This worked for about 45 minutes (longer than usual) and then the same problems occurred again.
Then tried uninstalling avira antivirus - no use.
Un-installed spybot to see if that was it, but could not reverse changes it made (advised when un-installing) as it said their were no changes.
I am thinking this is a hardware issue or maybe a virus?
Please advise
