So I have a store assembled computer, its not stock. I got it 5 or so years ago, and it has had a few bumps along the way. It originally was a windows vista computer, with a GeForce GTX 260 video card and two gigs of ram. This computer would shut down when playing games and would make it hard to run anything high powered.
About Christmas this year, I upgraded the computer. I will write current specs below. But first let me explain, because my old specs were making the computer shut down when playing games, I assumed it was the graphics card overheating, or the power-supply not being sufficient enough.
So I upgraded all of this in the last year or so, putting windows 8 on the computer, and getting a new power-supply and graphics card. However, now the computer freezes during playing games, and I cannot move anything on screen, and the sound starts buzzing loudly with the certain part of the sound it was playing when it froze. It will generally unfreeze after a long period of time, about half an hour to an hour. PLEASE HELP. I am really desperate to get this fixed as I haven't been able to play games on a high resolution properly for ages now. Thank you so much
Current Specs:
Windows 8.1 (64 bit)
4GB Ram
Processor: AMD Phenom II x4 810
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Ma770T-UD3P
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7800 series
Monitors: BenQ G2412HD
