  3. Windows 10 freezes randomly


    I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
    Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin
    I had tried that as well... no result.

    PC freezes randomly

    Hello,

    3 weeks ago my PC freezed for the first time when I had a lot of tabs open on my browser. The freeze stoped after about 20 seconds and I didn´t need to restart. 1 week later it started to freeze when i played Cyberpunk. That time I had no other choice than to shutdown the computer. I didn´t think it was much of a problem, because I thought it was because the game was to difficult for my PC, but the next day it started to freeze without doing all that much. After that it was much worse. My PC now freezes completly randomly. Sometimes after multiple hours after starting, sometimes after a few minutes or seconds after starting and opening a browser. One time it even freezed before I could type in my Password after starting my PC.

    I tried a lot of thinks:

    -Deleting everything and installing Windows again

    -Check for errors on my Hard Drives and Ram with programs like memtest

    -Updating Drivers

    -Checking the temperature regulary

    I don´t know what to do now, because I have no idea what the problem could be. Can anybody please help, as I am getting very frustrated with this.

    PC Specs:

    i5-7400

    GTX 1060 3GB

    16 GB Ram
