Hi Nico1533.

Uninstall these bloatware.

• Start Menu\Programs\ASRock Utility
• Start Menu\Programs\ASRock Utility\AsrAppCharger
• Start Menu\Programs\ASRock Utility\ASRock eXtreme Tuner
• Start Menu\Programs\ASRock Utility\InstantBoot
• Start Menu\Programs\ASRock Utility\SmartConnect

Also uninstall/Disable Asrock RAM disc. (c:\windows\system32\drivers\asrramdisk.sys)

Free up the startup. Windows does not need any other program to auto start with it, but the auto start programs often conflicts and causes various problems including BSODs.

1. Click on the Start button
2. Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
3. Select the “Startup” tab.
4. Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
5. Apply > OK
6. Accept then restart.

Let us know the results.

So I have uninstalled ASRock Instantboot v.1.29, ASRock Smartconnect v.1.0.6, smart connect and App Charger from the control pannel uninstall menu is that ok? and I didn't find the "ASRock extrem tuner" program though and I did what you asked for the startup options, if I did everything ok please let me know and I will let you know if the problem persist

But I cannot seems to find the "ASRock Utility" is it a folder?

EDIT #1: I forgot to delete "asrramdisk.sys" but it's done now

 

[Nico1533]

Well, it's crashed again, look's its happen VERY offten when I tab out of a game and tab back in or when i'm in loadings

Do two things.

First: try any other version of the display driver.

Second: Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Yesterday I tested my system with benchmark, I had no issue and what do you mean by try any other version of the display driver?

Uninstall your installed version of display driver and install any other version.

And, Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

Alright, stressed it for 15 min, max temperature recorded was 78c around 20k frames, I alt-tabed a couple of times to try to provoke the freeze, nothing happened, I dont think the problem is my video card

 

[Nico1533]

it's been 12 hours and I have not crashed since the video card stress test, any idea what's happening? I am lost..

 

[Nico1533]

just crashed twice now, ok well its not fixed

 

[Arc]

Does the crash take place in a particular game only, or in any game?

 

[Nico1533]

No, its can also happen on the desktop like i said its random, its evertytime im loading something. I formated last night installed everything back and its froze after an hour i got done formating and its crashed when i was loading in a game again

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/311593-speccy-publish-snapshot-your-system-specs.html .

Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

freezing probleme solve

deactivate virtual cores of your processor and it will stop freeze!
That is how I solve it after 2 month of testing and searching of clues....

 

[Raduromania1]

I had the next problem:
it starts freeze randomly, loadede or not, cold or hot, using the computer or not.
Sometimes it works fine for two days, other times it freeze right after logging on windows.
The only thing that works was to deactivate virtual cores from my processor, now i use i7 2600 like a quad core!
