Weird problem might be cpu (CHess titans freezing computer)

[rrr159]

akrught so i just built a computer and got everything up and running. I am using integrated gpu for now (Intel HD 4000) because im going to buy a gtx 680 in a couple of days. A little while ago I clicked chess titans and it asked me for difficulty i clicked intermediate and it froze. The entire computer froze. I dont think it is my specs because these are the following:

i7 3770k
asus p9z77-v mobo
16gb corsair vengeance ram, (memdiagnostic said its fine)
h100 cooler
antec 750-ea psu


PLEASE HELP!

Also everytime i want to check windows index rating, it freezes the computer too

Hi

You DID INSTALL the graphics drivers and chipset drivers from the Motherboard CD of course ???

All the best Brett

Yes of course. Now i tried netflix and that freezes too.

Have you adjusted the clocks, tweeked ram timings, overclocked at all? Are all of your drivers up to date - from manufacturers web site, not CD? I would run Prime95 at this time which will find computation errors in the CPU. I personally would be suspecting a driver or ram (I know the program said it's okay) issue from the symptoms but it could be the CPU. See what Prime 95 tells you in a 2-4 hour run.

i ran prime95 and it is not giving me any errors so far. ran it for about an hour maybe more. Any other thing to check?
