Hi all,
I am hoping you can offer some advice on how to identify the freezing issue with my home build. The issue is that I boot my Pc fine and after about 10-15 minutes everything becomes jumpy, the sound (if any) stutters and then freezes (this seems to happen faster when playing games/videos). This requires a restart (turn off, turn back on) before working fine.
To overcome this issue, I have been booting until the Windows login screen, then restarting. Since I have been doing this, I have had no freezing issues and my Pc runs ok (as it should).
Here are the spec of my Pc:
Intel Core i7 920 2.66 GHz, Socket 1366, Retail pack with fan
Asus P6T Motherboard, Socket 1366, 6xDIMM DDR3, 3xPCIe-16, 2xPCI, 1xPCIe-1, 12xUSB2, Firewire, Audio, 1xATA, 6xSATA, RAID, ATX
Gigabyte GV-N26OC-896I Video Card, GeForce GTX 260, 896MB, DDR3, PCIe-16, DVI, SLI ready, HDMI
Corsair XMS3 Dominator Tri-Channel TR3X6G1600C8D for Intel Core i7, 3x2GB, DDR3-1600, PC3-12800, CL8, DIMM
Corsair TX750, 750W ATX PSU, Active PFC, SLI Ready, Grey
Seagate SV35.3 ST31000340SV Hard Disk Drive, 1000GB, 7200rpm, 32MB Cache, SATA-2
LG Electronics GH22NS30 DVD Writer, DVD 16R/20W/8RW, CD 48R/48W/32RW, Internal, SATA, Black, OEM
My Pc is running Windows 7 home edition, 64 bit with all updates installed ok.
I have tried a clean install of Windows 7 and have checked all cables extra.
Has anyone else had this issue? What are some things I can do to identify the issue?
While my Pc does work ok, it is frustrating I have to re-start before it runs ok.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Aaron
