That is my build. When I play games such as CS:GO sometimes, it will work and everything will be fine. However, I have already had a LOT of occasions where if I alt tabbed out and clicked to go back in then my screen will be frozen. It will be either frozen at what I was doing or it will be a black screen. My mouse and keyboard would not do anything, but the computer sounds like it is running normally. I can't do anything when that happens and I am forced to hard shutdown/reset. Sometimes it will happen when I am in the game and am loading into the actual match as well. I've also had this occur when I am watching a video or alt tab from what seems to some something that is not graphics intensive, to something that is more graphics intensive (i.e. Google homepage to an HD Youtube video, or a game etc.)
Some thing's I have tried:
I took out my video card and routed my VGA into my mother board, and this actually caused a freeze as well, except, this freeze didn't cause my screen to be at a stand still at what I was doing, it went to some light blue color screen (not BSOD) and it froze there.
I took both my ram out and used one at a time to see if it was an issue but the problem still occurred with each RAM stick. I am currently doing a Memtest86 on it right now.
I have checked my event viewer and it doesn't say anything and only shows the hard shutdown/resets that I have to do after it has occured.
I have installed the AMD catalyst beta driver and it appears as though my drivers are up to date.
I cannot diagnose what is happening and I hope someone here can help!!!!
