Problem,
OS system freezes up. Can not move mouse,ctrl/alt/delete does not work,sound goes dead. Only solution is to pull mains power out and reboot.
Happens no matter what program is being used, maybe after minutes or hours,but happens in daily light usage.
What I have tried so far without any success.
Memtest ran for 24 hours and no errors.
Had Motherboard exchanged.
Tried running OS on another hard drive
I had this built as an HTPC for mainly media usage, play hd movies and music and occasionaly browse the web.
I had a problem with the case touch screen going dead and I changed the origanal motherboard and did a few minor upgrades, this solved the screen issue, but now it freezes up?
Any one know what else I can do? It has been driving me nuts for months.
I have been having this problem since I upgraded my mother board, graphic card, ram and power supply.
Hi and welcome
Have you tried booting into safe mode(F8)? does it freeze there?
why dont you take a look in event viewer (type eventvwr in search) . Go to the windows logs>application tab.
You are looking for critical errors (they have red in the left hand column) that have app hang, app crash, etc.
When you find them (there is a lot of data there) use the built in snipping tool (type snipping in search) to make a screen shot.
Upload it using the attachment icon (shaped like a paperclip) on the reply form See Pics
Let us know if you need help
