My Pc is behaving rather strange lately:
Every day when I switch it on in the morning, Win8 loads up fine and with a 99% probability freezes a short time after startup. The time varies, it might be 30 seconds after logging on, it might be 2 minutes.
Then the system becomes increasingly unresponsive - processes (like browsers) open and freeze, parts of the desktop become frozen in their last spot etc.
The mouse cursor works all the time, btw.
The only possible solution is to press reset.
After the second boot up of the day, everything works fine. No problems whatsoever with the system.
Until the next time I need to switch the system off for a longer time.
So - is it a Windows problem and solvable by refreshing / reinstalling, or is a hardware problem probable? Some sort of electrical charge on the motherboard which fades after the first reset and then builds up overnight?
I'm really puzzled and would appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance,
Mac
