    Hi All,
    Just built new htpc and it keeps freezing, no errors just screen lock cant move mouse nothing. stays like that for 5 seconds then turns off. I currently have windows 7 installed a gskill pro ssd 40gb.
    Im using the following parts:
    Corsair VX-450 Power Supply
    Sony AD7240SGB 24X SATA DVDRW OEM
    Intel Core i3 540
    G.Skill F3-10600CL9D-4GBNT 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3
    Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 Mini-ITX Motherboard
    Samsung EcoGreen F4 2TB HD204UI
    Lian Li PC-Q11 Black Aluminium HTPC Case USB3.0
    All the above including the ssd are brand new.
    Are there any settings that i am missing for thee ssd that would cause freezes like this?

    Welcome

    Here are my solutions to freezing, and an excellent article, which I hope is of some help
    Go to search type device manager and look for any yellow warning markers
    Download and run malwarebytes, a full scan after you update
    Run antivirus scan
    Check memory with memtest86
    Make sure that you are not over heating.
    Try in safe mode; report back if it works properly.
    Try a clean boot
    Make sure PSU is working properly
    If overclocking, restore to original
    Test hard drive at company website.
    Test in safe mode, does it still happen?
    Try with clean boot..
