New Computer Froze After 30 Minutes?
Sep 17, 2015
Brand new computer, just took it out of the box. Came with windows 10 already installed. Worked fine at first. I deleted a couple of junk programs like the Ebay app. Transferred some documents, pictures, movies, and music files from an external hard drive onto the computer. None of those files were files types that (I would think) are high risk. Downloaded ITunes. Installed ESET smart security anti-virus program.
Now computer is frozen. Ctr-alt-delete doesn't work. Ctr-shift-esc doesn't work. The cursor can be moved around on screen but clicking anywhere, or on anything has no effect. Keyboard has no effect. The only way I can even restart is with the power button, but when I restart it starts up into the same frozen state. Have tried starting it in safe mode but can't get it to enter safe mode on startup.

Yesterday morning the PC worked fine. Last night it refused to load Windows (10) but rather froze on the logo, with the whirly loader. Forced shut down, tried again, same deal. Next time it said "Starting Windows repair", but froze. Next time it said it too, and the next time it didn't. It hasn't said it since. I left it sitting on the frozen screen for about a half an hour, and it gave an error message "Boot disk inaccessible". Unhooked everything, reset CMOS, checked BIOS, reseated memory, ran memory diagnostics, etc..
So I put in a brand spanking new SSD assuming the old one was to blame (as it had become a bit sluggish anyway, being a few years old and all) and went to install new Windows from an official USB stick. And up comes Windows logo and the whirly loading thingy.... and it freezes. I just don't know what to do anymore.

When you do WindowsPowerShutdown,Monitor goes blank immediately, showing no more programs running. However the computer remains on for quite a long time (guess 2~3 mins), before it finally turns off - fan shuts down and everything seems to shut down at that point.

Friend of mine bought a new computer for his son and i built it together. The specs are as follows:
HDD: Samsung 850 EVO Series 250GB
PSU + Case : Cooler Master Elite 310 Silver / Black - EVGA 500W White
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX970 G1 Gaming 4GB
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B150M-DS3H DDR3
Memory: Crucial BallistixSport 2x4GB 1600MHz
HDD2: Seagate Desktop HDD 2TB 7200RPM
CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 2.70GHz
Fresh install of windows 10.
Everything boots up fine, i get into windows and drivers etc gets installed, then suddenly everything freezes completely, no bluescreen, no event viewer errors, just basically "stop" and nothing works.
I tested this so far:
Disabled all onboard stuff in bios, tested to reinstall the windows about 10 times, tested 1 piece of ram, 2 piece of ram, and ram from another computer, same with GPU and HDD's and PSU (basically swapped everything from another computer except motherboard and CPU, still same thing happens).
What puzzles me is that the computer works 100% fine, nothing seems wrong, then it suddenly locks completly. all temperatures are fine, all performance is up to par, everything seems in order. Games run at max fps etc (if i even manage to start em before it freezes).

I am experiencing an issue with my computer that has been occurring since I upgraded to Windows 10. At startup, I can launch any program fine. However, after about 30 minutes or so of inactivity (I've never actually timed it), I loose the ability to launch programs. I double click on an application, Chrome, Edge, Steam, File Folders, anything, and it just doesn't seem to register. I can bring up the Start Menu screen, but launching from there as opposed to the task bar or desk top gets me the same result. I get the circle icon for a second as if it is thinking, but it never launches. I cannot even launch Task Manager without hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del and launching it that way. When I do, the programs I attempt to open do not appear in the list. My only recourse is to reboot the computer and then it works fine again.
Here's my computer's system info:
Alienware 17 R1
Windows 10 Pro
Processor: Intel Core i7-4710MQ CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50GHz
Installed Memory (RAM): 16.0 GB
System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
Pen and Touch: No Pen or Touch Input is available for this Display

When I walk away from my computer, I want it to go to sleep in 20 minutes. Sometimes I return after an hour, and the computer is still awake. There's obviously a rat in the woodpile here. Some software is changing my sleep setting from 20 minutes to "Never" without my permission. Sometimes it will sleep normally for a day or 2, then suddenly something resets my sleep time to "Never".
Is there a way I can block this activity, or re-set it to the proper 20 minute setting on each startup?BTW, I had the same problem in WIn7 and Win8. I was hoping it would be fixed in Win10. It has not.

Every time I've logged into my account on my PC, it has rebooted (without showing any error message or crash screen) after a few minutes or so.
Opening event viewer, it shows event ID 41 at the time of reboot - the event before that is an event ID 6 stating "File System Filter 'FileCrypt' (10.0, ?2015?-?07?-?10T04:14:31.000000000Z) has successfully loaded and registered with Filter Manager." - I have never heard of filecrypt, the other events are all legitimate ones associated with the system booting up.
I have attempted booting in safe mode using msconfig, but that doesn't seem to work. So far, the only thing that works is by switching to an account that's barely used, where the computer runs perfectly well with no crashes.
I suspect a virus, but I haven't downloaded anything dodgy recently, and Avira (free) hasn't found anything either ...
Also, here's a link for a video taken of the reboot happening, as well as all open processes/services: [URL] ....
Specs:
CPU: AMD A8-6600K @ 3.9 Ghz
RAM: 8GB, 1 stick novatech 4GB, 1 stick HyperX fury 4GB (both 1600Mhz)
GPU: MSI R7 260 1GB GDDR5 (OC)
PSU: Jeantech 430W (not best make, but has been reliable for quite some time)
HDD: 1TB Western Digital "Green"
MOBO: Some Gigabyte FM2+ mATX cheapo board, can't remember exact name

So I restarted my computer and router because my internet was being slower then usual. After I restarted my computer it took almost 30 secs to show the log in screen, that's the longest it's ever taken. After I log in it takes about 3 mins to load an application. Even when I attempted to open my windows setting it's slow. My computer is a gaming computer with an i7 and a gtx 970 with 16 gigs of dd3 ram.

I'm crashing too often to make much progress.
So far I've seen memory fault exception and security kernel BSODs.
And a system service exception just now.

After leaving my computer alone for a few minutes my computer restarts with a REGISTRY_ERROR BSOD. I have disabled ".NET Framework NGEN v4.0.30319 Critical" and ".NET Framework NGEN v4.0.30319 64 Critical" and also ran sfc/scannow with no integrity violation. I uninstalled and reinstalled my graphics drivers and also reseated the card.

The first win 10 upgrade worked well on my Packard Bell Easynote TS11SB laptop, but the next upgrade REALLY SLOWED DOWN the startup process. Now 2 minutes. I've tried the highly unintuitive disable quick boot up trick to no avail.

My two and a half year old pc, after switching graphic card, started to get BSOD about two weeks ago, saying Whea uncorrectable error. I did some research, and tried resetting CMOS, updating BIOS, and memtest86 to see if my rams are done. I also used some intel tools to check if my cpu has problem, but there was no signs. I thought about updating my drivers, but nothing worked. I did not oc my cpu, and it was at safe temperature while gaming, around 50-65.
I got really confused, so I decided to reinstall os, I cleaned out everything with a fresh install. My pc worked well with no BSOD for a week. I did not copy any of my backup files on my external hard drive to the reinstalled pc, and now while I was playing game(assassin's creed syndicate this time) , it happens again, still WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR. I am confused that it does not seem like driver or software issues, so would it be hardware issues?
How to read dump files or anything and can't seem to solve it.

I run Win10 under Parallels at MacBook. Few days ago it started to crash about 30 minutes after boot. I don't need to do anything, just wait and it will die. Usually it's REGISTRY_ERROR, but sometimes another error.
sfc shows some errors, but they don't look dangerous.
I've talked to Parallels guys and they claim it's Windows issue, not VM. Checked Win7 VM and works fine.

I've modified my power settings to NEVER turn off displays and NEVER put the system to sleep/hibernate.
Nevertheless, after 5 minutes of inaction, displays go dark.
I haven't tested the sleep/hibernate part yet.

Brought new CPU+motherboard. Decided to use windows 10. Getting BSODs all the time, every few seconds or minutes. Sometimes even while installation i getting CLOCK_WATCHDOG_FAILED. If i got lucky and windows successfully installed. It bsoding every few seconds with: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_FAILED, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, HAL_INITALIZATION_FAILED. Can't install any drivers. I tired to use win10,win8,win7-Clean install. Everywhere - same issues, same BSODs.
Hardware(Nothing overclocked):
CPU: AMD FX 9590 - CPU and Motherboard was tested in guarantee service via IDA64, SiSoft Sandra. No issues was found.
MB: ASRock Fatal1ty 970 Performance
GPU: GeForce GTX780 - Have 2 more similar cards. Tried with every of them. Same problem.
RAM: 8+8gb 1600mhz Dual-Channel mode. Tested via memtest 1day. No issues.
HDD: Have 6HDDs, all was tested. No bad sectors. SMART report also fine. Bsods happens on all of them.
PSU: Thermaltake 1200WTT, all voltages looks fine. Anyway i tried with hiPro 1000wtt - same issues.
BIOS have last version v1.20. Tried to reset CMOS. Running windows diagnostic tools gives nothing. When i trying to use windows cmd.exe and run SFC /SCANNOW it gives me BSOD in a few seconds. DISM gives me the same - bsod. Running SFC /scannow via windows DVD says everything fine.
I have a few more old amd FX cpu's. I can try to use them if can find the problem.

On one of the Windows 10 systems here (upgrade followed by reset) all applications including the desktop become unresponsive for up to 20 minutes or so with the "spinning doughnut" mouse pointer displayed. During this entire period, something is hammering away on the hard drive.If I leave it long enough, the hard disk stops churning, and everything wakes up again.
Clearly some process has locked out all application screen updates (why?) while it does something to the hard drive.There are no entries in either the Application or System event logs that match up with the times that this has happened.The only common factor is that on several occasions I've had a VMware virtual machine running, but I don't think that it is every time.
Graphics card is an ATI FireGL V7600 sfc /scannnow thinks everything is OK.

The title sums it up but here are the notes i already made and things i have tried so far:
Freezing issue :
I boot up ssd system drive with blank cd in drive. Log in windows shows but the sound chime is repeating rapidly constantly and the system has frozen.
Tried the same in safe mode and it doesn't do this!
I boot into Windows and after 2-5 minutes i can guarantee it freezes up completely including the mouse and keyboard. There is no log left behind because the system locks up and doesn't allow any information to be saved!
This also occurs in safe mode with networking enabled!
This also occurs when i boot windows with diagnostic mode chosen via msconfig
If i boot into Windows and try to burn a disc the hard drive has a lot of activity and the burning never actually commences. After a few minutes of waiting around the system freezes up!
In diagnostic mode chosen via msconfig, the burning app (basic windows "burn to disc" connect menu option) days checking disc when i insert black disc but then no hard drive activity occurs and nothing else happens in terms of the burning process actually taking place.
System mechanic told me the smbus driver needed updating. It seems i started getting the freezing issue after updating this driver but it may be coincidental and actually may be a Windows update that occurred at the same time (i think i recall things "getting configured" around the same time too).
When i look at the smbus driver (it is the amd smbus controller driver) it troopers that there isn't actually a driver installed at all!?
