Hey guys, been having trouble with this on and off for a couple months now. I used to stream on twitch a lot, and play a lot of WoW/LoL but started having a problem where I'd lock up, and have to hard reset my PC. I thought it was a problem with Xsplit (the program I used to stream) but I would still randomly get these lockups when playing a game. So PLEASE if anyone can offer me some insight as to what to check, that'd be great, heres some info:
i5 2500k at stock ghz, with a corsair h60
Radeon hd 6870 (XFX) 1gb (HD-687A-ZHFC)
Toughpower xt 650
Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3
G Skill Ripjaw (2x4gb)
Asus wireless card
Dual monitor
Here's what happens:
-Complete screen lock up (No BSOD or black screen) just locks up how it was at the time
-Mouse/keyboard unresponsive, mouse lights go out
-sound seizures/loops
-have to hard reset
It froze up tonight while i was raiding (and not streaming), then I wanted to recreate it and see if temps were the problem, which it doesnt look like they are.
Some temps when it froze about an hour ago (Was streaming.):
Mobo: 41, 43, 39
CPU: 45, 48,46,49
GPU: 56
I have the latest BIOS, the newest drivers for my 6870. Sometimes when I have to hard reset, when I reboot and get back in, the computer will not recognize any wireless internets. To fix it, I have to turn off the PC, pull the wireless card, and put it back in, and then it will be fine.
I ran memtest86 with no problems overnight a few months ago but I'll try it again tomorrow
I really need this to be working correctly come MoP, but I have no idea where to go from here.
Checked event logs after, Had one that was just an error 6008 (Previous system shutdown was unexpected. And then one after that was "Critical" event 41, task category 63, just stating the system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first and that it could be caused if the system stopped responding, etc.
