Win 7 64bit freezing up

[ritzon]

windows 7 is freezing up completely, cant move the mouse or anything, its really annoying the heck out of me. its been happening for weeks. i have replaced my old video card with an evga gtx 465, i have tried my ram in all different slots, i have tried both sticks by themselves, i have ran memtest, prime95, i have ran data lifeguard to test my hard drive... i have updated drivers, i have put a box fan next to my comp to see if it was overheating. and there are no minidumps...

Did you run a antivirus scan and download and scan with malwarebytes?

Did you go to search and type event viewer and look for errors.

How about a clean boot.

nothing in event viewer other than the unexpected shutdowns every time it crashes, i havent tried a clean boot will though. and will try the malware. it has been doing this since i installed win7 64 on a new computer.

 

[richc46]

I did not know that it started with the install. Did you do a clean install or upgrade?
An upgrade: you did not have to reinstall programs.

 

[ritzon]

clean

 

[richc46]

Thats fine, then. An upgrade would have warranted a reinstall.

 

[ritzon]

the only thing not brand new in my computer is my disc drive

If the clean boot and other suggestions do not work, try in safe mode. If you report results tonight, I will see it tomorrow.

 

[ritzon]

gona goto sleep, i'll try some more after work tomorrow.

it seems to be getting worse, i can now log onto wow and it freezes withing about 10-15 minutes. i can play wow and watch a video and freezes within just a couple minutes.

but i can just surf the internet without it freezing, its just on games/videos, mainly netflix and gom player, i dont know if it does it on videos on youtube or anything alike.

 

[richc46]

Do you know how hot it gets?

 

[ritzon]

on wow i know my gpu stays low to mid 50s celcius, my cpu stays mid 40s

 

[richc46]

What happened with clean boot and safe mode?

 

[ritzon]

i havent done it all yet, had to sleep for work. i did up too the part where i turned all the non microsoft services off, now i need to turn them off and try that.

 

[richc46]

Post as soon as you get the results. I do not have to be online, I will post as soon as I find out. We will get this fixed, I already have other ideas.

 

[richc46]

If the tests are negative and I am not on. Test your hard drive. Go to the website of your Hard Drive mfg, and test it. Defrg it. Make sure you have ample free space available.

im trying wow right now with gomplayer playing, with the sound services off.
i couldnt play wow with my last restart because it turned off the internet as well. but i think it may be my sound causing the problem something my friend mentioned to me when i froze a week or so ago.

 

[richc46]

Yes could be a driver. Go to device manager, look for yellow warning markers by the drivers. Make sure drivers are up to date.

 

[ritzon]

well, its not sound, froze again time to continue trying the clean boot

 

[ritzon]

well, every time i turn the top half off i cant try wow because i wont have internet, i try to turn on ones i think are for internet but i don't seem to be turning on all the right ones. so i need to figure out which ones to leave on.
