    Computer freezing/unresponsive


    I have an HP Envy x360 laptop.I was running some memory-intensive programs when the screen froze at 3:13pm.The keyboard and touchscreen were unresponsive. Buttons on the laptop that should turn on lights when pressed ie the capslock and volume mute buton don't light up. Closing lid does not put computer to sleep when it should. Tapping power button to put the computer to sleep doesn't put the computer to sleep. Holding the power button works and causes it to shut down. I shut the computer down at 4:03:43pm. It was recorded as a critical event so I know what time it occured.The computer froze

    My laptop randomly freezes and becomes completely unresponsive

    Hi Mia,

    The next step is to eliminate the errors on your device that's causing it to freeze or become unresponsive. To do this, we suggest that you run
    DISM to restore any corrupted or missing components on your device. For a step-by-step guide, click this

    link     and refer to the article of ZigZag3143, skip the
    SFC     scan and proceed to DISM.

    Let us know if you encounter any challenges along the process.
