Hi Guys,

I've been having issues with my computer lately, it crashes at any time given. My screen freezes on what ever I'm doing. I cannot alt tab or ctrl alt delete and forced to restart computer. The freezing happens no matter what I'm doing; gaming, web browsing, YouTube videos.

This is what I've really tried:

New Graphics Card
New hard drive
Checked internals
Different operating systems
Checked Temperatures ( Full Load CPU: 48 GPU: 79

Computer runs very well, and gaming is a breeze just keeps crashing.

I7 3770 3.4 Ghz
GTX 660ti (Upgrading again soon)
2x 4GB ram
1TB Hard drive (Windows 7.1)
2TB Hard drive

Please Help

Joe Joe

I have a 650w power supply and haven't over clocked my CPU or my graphics card.

In that case, the next thing to check would be your hard drives. Try running the chkdsk command in your command prompt (make sure that you run it as an administrator). This will tell you if there are any problems with your hard drive that may be causing lock-ups.

The drive with windows on it is the new one i install about 4 days ago once the problems started happening. That is the reason why i bought it to check if it was the hard drive. Therefore after installing it the problem still occurs. Ruling out the hard drive being the issue. Think im out of options.

What about your new graphics card? Did this start happening around the time you bought it? You GPU may be faulty, in which case it would cause your PC to crash. Do you still have your old GPU? If so, then I would suggest putting it back in your system and see if the problem persists. If you don't have another GPU, then just switch to onboard video in the BIOS (note that if you switch to onboard video, things like gaming will be impossible due to the low specs of onboard video. Just use it for a few days and see if your PC continues to crash).
