PC freezes when downloading or watching videos in the browser
Hello there!
So as it is said in the title - my PC is freezing when i am trying to download large files(Torrent, Steam or simply a direct download) and this also happens when i am watching videos on youtube for example, everything simply freezes and sound goes on the loop, so only thing i can do is a hard reset.
My main suspects of this are my motherboard(Asus P8B 75-m LX) or windows(Windows 7 Ultimate x64).
This issue began to happen when i moved back to my country from UK, i sent my PC home by delivery service and when it arrived, first my video card started malfunctioning and then this issue with downloads started to happen. Since then i changed the video card, got a new SSHD(even if i download to this new disc drive PC is still freezing) and new RAM. Also reinstalled windows several times. Nothing of that helped.
There is an interesting thing about the freezes, they seem to happen when pc is idling(when i am not actively doing something with it, playing a video game for example).
So, thats my issue. I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas before I buy a new mobo. Thank You!
