screen freezes randomly without any specific warning.
Well, backstory. I had invested in purchasing a computer because the people who had owned it previously had problems with it constantly crashing. I decided to buy it and challenge myself in fixing it. So far, I've fixed it up to the point where the crashing is far less frequent to what it used to be, but it still does crash from time to time.
I had initially purchased a new hard drive because I thought that would be the issue, but it seemed as though that wasn't the case. I replaced the original, and terrible, Xtreme Gear PSU, and that seemed to solve the problem for a good bit, but the computer still does freeze on occasion. I've been told it could be an overheating issue, but since the inclusion of my new PSU (Corsair TX750), the heat hasn't gotten to any sort of high level, and even still, it hadn't gone very high in the past.
Now, I'm just confused and would like to see if anyone else could help me out.
Most of the time, everything just freezes and nothing is responsive. I've really only experienced a BSOD three or four times in the past, and the rest has all been complete freezing.
Thank you in advance,
