I just built a brand new computer 3 months ago. Everything was running perfectly up until about a week ago.
Now when I try to play any games in full screen, after about 30 minutes the screens will freeze and I will lose all power to any USB devices (keyboard, mouse, headset). My speakers plugged in through AUX will just make a non stop buzzing sound. This occurs even with non intensive games like CS:GO or League. I never seem to have this problem when not in full screen.
When this happens there is no way to regain control of the computer unless I do a hard reset. This is really concerning me and I do not know what to do to fix it.
I am running Windows 10, with an i5-6600k, GTX1080, and ASUS Z170-A MOBO. Please help me. Thank you.
Edit: I believe the issue was found. Event Viewer showed AIChargerPlus crashing repeatedly before my system would crash. When I went to uninstall AIChargerPlus I also discovered AI Suite had an automatic overclock on my system. I ran some Prime95 tests and the system crashed.
I completely uninstalled AI Suite and went back to BIOS and reset the settings. Now I no longer have a crappy failing driver and an unstable overclock. Im 99% sure one or both of those were causing the problem, especially after checking online and finding other identical horror stories involving AI Suite.
