I know this is long, but if you have any knowledge on PCs, PLEASE READ! It has been about a year since I've built my PC. I have almost given up trying to fix the issues I have with it. Being my first PC ever built, I have no idea what's wrong with it, but I am so tired of this. Ever since I built my PC, it locks up ALL THE TIME when gaming. sometimes it's 2 seconds, sometimes it's 30. I have no idea why, but it just does. I'll be playing DayZ, GMod, or any game, and it will just lock up. I try Alt+Tabbing or Ctrl Alt Delete but it doesn't work. Also, when it locks up, if the cursor was up at the time, I can still move it around, but nothing else. I'll have a steam voice call running in the background and I can still hear them and talk back, but other than that and move the cursor, nothing. I always have to tell him "wait, my computer froze up" in the middle of an intense firefight (really annoying). Once it's done locking up, if I had tried Ctrl Alt Deleting earlier when it was still frozen, it will then pull up task manager. But after it's done locking up, it's fine, everything goes back to normal. I used to get BSODs as well, but I haven't in a long time. I considered that maybe the ram slot I put my ram stick in was damaged, so I moved it to a new slot, still no change. I'm so tired of having a ruined gaming experience because of this.
