Hello
I have recently been having problems with my computer completely freezing up, and refusing do do anything. If I in some way get it to do something it takes aaaages, and the task manager shows only about 2-5% CPU usage. The freezes are usually random, and i haven't found a way to trigger them.
I don't think its an overheating issue, seeing as i have a NZXT Phantom case, and have installed all fans. Im also using a corsair H50 CPU water cooling thing.
I hadn't done anything to the computer for about 5 days before the freezes started, I do however think that the freezes are caused by some kind of memory filling up, and dthe overflowing, causing the computer to freeze. I believe that because the computer doesn't freeze if i am not actively using it.
I have checked all the connection, both inside and outside the computer, and they all seem to be fine.
Oh, and the only way to turn off the computer when it freezes is by holding down the power button.
Specs:
AMD Phenom x6 1055T
2 Western Digital 640 Gb S-ATA HDD's running in RAID 0
XFX ATI HD 5850
ASRock 870 Extreme3
NZXT Phantom Case
Corsair H50
Cooler Master 1000w PSU
2 x 2Gb Kingston HyperX RAM
Thanks in advance
