Hmmm. No viruses. I think it may have to do with my graphics driver. From time to time it will stop responding then recover. When it freezes any audio in the background will continue but im unable to click anything. I can move the mouse but that is all.
Something like this?
Try to roll back the display driver to the earlier version installed, just to have a check that if it is the same with another driver version or not.

Let us know the situation, as it is mostly a hardware error. The error of the GPU itself.
Exactly! I will try this.
Also i JUST received a BSOD.

Can you use the onboard graphics as a test, to observe if it is the same BSOD on onboard graphics or not?
Its just a test, to see if the errors are occurring with the GPU on only.
The cable connecting the monitor and the computer is connected with the GPU. Remove it from there, and put it in the same slot of the motherboard. Usually windows configures onboard graphics at a restart.
Most probably we will end up with changing the GPU.
Well that's not good. My mother board doesn't have any on board graphics...
Yes. I rolled back to a previous driver yesterday and i have no received any display failures or BSOD. Interesting. I believe the BSOD may have been a combination of a failing display driver AND Norton 360. What are the chances of that? I will mark this thread as solved it the stability is consistent for 2 whole days.
