PC Randomly locks up


Recommended Posts

I'll be using my pc then the thing just randomly locks up but works fine after a reboot, is the cpu bottleknecking? All I've been doing on it was watching videos/listening to music.

A bottleneck has nothing to do with lock-ups.

 

If you have any overclocks, go back to default settings and see how it goes.

 

If the problem persist, i would check if the system is stable by starting with memtest, then prime 95, then msi kombustor (or any other good gpu stress program).

Hmm, that could be it though, maybe you caught some mall-ware that is interfering with your system.

Last resort is a fresh install of windows, or something that can remove those 9 threats effectively.

Ah, tell me about those nasty worms. Been fighting them along with my brother a couple years ago.
