Hi,
The short answer-my computer has been freezing on video games and after crashing the process cannot be closed even in task manager.
Recently (in the last month) my computer has been stuttering and leading to an eventual freeze on all computer games. The stuttering can begin instantly or take several hours of solid gaming, they start as small stutters and sound loops but eventually the whole game crashes.
The second problem is once the games have crashed the application exits but in task manager the process is apparently still going on, even when you try to end it or the process tree. This then causes my computer to freeze every minute or so for 10-30 seconds and the only way to stop this is with a hard shut down.
My specs-
CPU-AMD Phenom II X4 955 3.20GHz
RAM-2x2GB DDR3 and 2x4GB DDR3 (i tried both as i enitially thought this was a problem)
Hard Drives-Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120GB (used for Applications and OS)
-Western Digital Blue 1TB (used for game and file storage)
GPU-Sapphire HD 7850 2048MB GDDR5
PSU-600w (i think i may have to get back to you on that)
Motherboard-ASUS M4N68T-M V2
OS-Windows Home Premium 64-bit
