I been having this problem for a week and have posted 2 different thread and no one has answer them. I tried every solution I have found and still the problem exist. I did some test on the RAM and HDD and not error was found. Everything has been working fine. The problem is that every minute I click at something, a program, web browser, a song, etc, it freeze the whole PC for a minute or less. Then like in 1 minute if I do click at something, everything freezes. Most of the time it freezes when I'm using the internet. I tried to play Minecraft and see what was going to happen but It didn't freeze after 5 minutes of playing. Well, what I have done to prevent this problem is,

Test the HDD/SDD (forgot the name, but it test the HDD with green squares).
Test the RAM with memtest86 (no error was found).
I disabled all start up programs in safe mode.
Uninstall graphic drivers.
Uninstall latest programs/plugins I download.
I boot the PC in safe mode and it work fine and better than in normal mode.
I did a repair my PC from the boot menu.
I troubleshoot to see if there was any problem.
I use CCleaner for registry to delete files (It did delete a lot, but still nothing).
I use Malwarebyte to fine virus (No virus was found).
*I am trying to restore my PC to an earlier date but the restore points are from the last 3 days (It has to be between April 10-15 to see if the problem was after that).
I took a look in device manager for yellow/red triangle, but nothing.
I also try to install drivers from device manager ( or check if that's the way to say it).
I disabled shockwave from Google chrome (The internet has been freezing a lot too).
CPU temp is running between 30-40.
Lastly, I'm tired trying to fix this. Please help me. If you have a different solution, post it..

Here are my PC specs
Intel i7 4770
GTX 770
Asus Z87
RAM 16GB
HDD 2TB
SDD 500GB
 
Solution
Check the temperature on your memory. Some memory modules are situated on the motherboard such that they get poor airflow. I had similar problems, using 24GB of DDR2-667 memory on a 2x Xeon E5440 motherboard. Windows 7 would crash randomly, I would try to run memtest (booting from a USB drive) and this program would freeze up as well before detecting any errors. An infrared thermometer showed module temperatures well above 80C.

An additional fan blowing directly in on the memory modules seems to have solved the problem.

If your machine runs well in safe mode you are almost certainly looking at a driver issue. This most likely would be a mouse driver issue from what you are describing as you have already replaced the video drivers and mouse interaction seems the be the thing that sets it off according to what I'm reading. Try a totally different mouse and remove the old one from device manager.

The problem is still there. I change replace the mouse and still the PC froze; however, it's freezing less time then before. It took almost 30 minutes to freeze.

I was afraid someone was going to say that. I don't really like this reinstall thing because it deletes everything and I have gone through that three times on the past and is really annoying.
