    Freezes after 5-10 minutes


    On 1st boot of the day, after 5 or so minutes of operation, pc will either freeze (no response to mouse/kybd) or give a quick bluescreen, then restart.
    If it just freezes, I manually restart and then it works fine for rest of the day. Can run for hours w/ no probs. I have tried:

    clean boot
    sfc/scannow
    malwarebytes - no issues.
    memtest86 - 11 passes - 0 errors.
    cloned the C: drive and replaced it.
    Latest graphics card drivers.
    Uninstalled AVG. Installed Avast.

    I have looked at the event log and the files from the "dm log collector" program,(report attached) but don't really know enough to interpret.

    Win7 Pro 32-bit 10-yr old pc I built that has been great so far.

    Thanks for any assistance

    Welcome to the forum.

    Please edit your profile with ALL your hardware specs.
    I would say that is a scheduled task launched on on the fist boot of the day.
    Open Task scheduler and look for those that are launched once a day.

    Run Defrag and Win update.
    Set Win update to disabled.

    OK, Profile updated. Defragged. WinUpdate disabled. Lots of stuff in task scheduler that runs once a day:

    Consolidator / Microsoft CEIP
    NvProfileUpdater / Nvidia?
    NvTmRep /Nvidia?
    NvDriverUpdateCheck
    ProgramDataUpdater /Microsoft
    AitAgent /Microsoft
    MicrosoftCompatabilityAppraiser
    CacheTask
    Check for Updates / Spybot
    GlaryInitialize5 /Glary
    HotStart
    LPRemove
    Proxy
    QueueReporting

    _________

    Gotta leave for work now, will try again tom'w.

    Thanks!

    It is not necessary to defrag an SSD indeed some say you should never defrag an SSD!

    When I wrote to defrag, I didn't have your specs.
    As Mitchell reminded, defrag has no effect on SSD and shouldn't be done.
    Windows normally disable defrag on SSD's.
    Look for the schedule tasks that run once a day with 5 min delay start.

    I didn't see any scheduled tasks that had a 5 min delayed start. Several tasks were related to Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program so I opted out of CEIP and disabled AitAgent, QueueReporting, ProgramDataUpdater, Consolidator, and anything that had CEIP in the title. Also uninstalled Spybot. Still had pc freeze after a few minutes. Even after a clean boot. Latest "dm log collector" and a screenshot of my Event Viewer are attached. Thanks again if you have any further ideas for me.

    It's very difficult to us to say what is wrong with your computer. We can only guess, like I did, and you have run after to find a solution.

    I see on your specs that you have a SSD. When you installed the SSD, did you do a Clean install or cloned the existing HDD to the HDD?

    Hi OUT5,

    You could update your BIOS, current f10 yours f8.
    Are you overclocking if so reset to defaults
    AVG ZEN is still on your system
    Update your Broadcom/Nvidea drivers WU - keeps flagging then
    (Avast/spybot are experiencing connectivity issues)
    Try just running MSE for the moment
    some of your windows updates do not appear to have completly installed
    suggest you run
    sfc /scannow
    and SURT KB947821
    post the results


    You are capable of running 64bit W7 OS, with your College Volume MAK key
    note there is an activation limit

    OK, I updated Broadcom & Nvidia drivers, deleted Avast and installed MSE. sfc/scannow reports no issues. Ran SURT KB947821.
    My PC has been running for 2 days now with no freezes or bluescreen. I'll wait a few more days then mark this as solved. Thanks everyone!
