I managed to remove the programs and also update the
drivers. Is their an alternative software that shows CPU temperature, and also that controls fan speeds? I used the ASUS AI Suite so as to manage fan speeds since it would get loud at times when I was running it at full power.
My computer had never crashed up until that date, so I was a bit worried, since everything just froze up, until I had to do a hard reset. From then my PC has been working fine without any freezes.
