First time poster here, and rest assured I have searched the net and been working on this problem for days but to no avail. So I thought of asking for your opinions.
PC Specs:
ASUS Z68M-PRO
Core i7 2600
EVGA GTX 560 Ti
Cooler Master Silent Pro 600W
2x 4GB Kingston 1333MHz
1TB Seagate
I am not sure if this is software or hardware related. I run windows 7 64bit SP 1. 2 weeks ago my PC suddenly had random freezes when using it and even when booting. During the booting, it would turn turn black, would just hang, or have random lines in the screen before, during, or after the welcome screen. If I get past that, the problem is now in using the PC. I did a system restore but it was still the same so I reformatted my OS drive and it still happens but this time I discovered it happens when I try to play any video file, opening mozilla, and changing my theme to aero. The random freezes still occur though. I did not fail to install any of my drivers and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling them. System is not old, everything was bought 8 months ago.
Any thoughts on this?
