Hello, a couple weeks ago I built a pc. When I installed Windows and booted up the system I could do stuff normally for a few minutes but then it froze, mouse wouldn't move and keyboard did nothing. I tried a few fixes including flashing my BIOS. I was updating it in Windows and during the update my pc froze, killing the bios. Thankfully the motherboard has a dual bios feature so I booted it up from there. I wasn't able to fix the crashing so I send my motherboard in for a replacement. Today it came in and i put everything back together. After a clean install of windows and a propper BIOS update, it still crashes. When I go into the Windows update page in settings there are a ton of updates that need to be downloaded but I can never get them downloaded in time before it crashes. After replacing the motherboard and trying it with different ram I can only think that it must be a cpu problem. But before I ask for a replacement is there anything else I can try? I would assume being able to download the Windows updates will help but I can't. Thanks in advance.
