    My PC keeps freezing


    Hey all, please help!

    My PC freezes when I do a performance test (User Benchmark, Cinebench etc). It's not a bluescreen - the mouse just stops and nothing reacts (no task manager, nada).

    The PC is one day old, here are the specs:

    i9 10850, MSI Meg Z490, RTX 3070, Hyperx Fury 2x16GB RAM, 1TB SSD + 2TB HD, 360MM liquid cooling, 850W Gold PSU.

    Any ideas of what to check?

    Computer Keeps Freezing

    It froze again, and the common problem I see throughout most of the freezes is a driver atksgt.sys being blocked from loading. It is related to Tages Protection from Tages SA and it says it has a driver that is installed that causes stability problems with my system. It says it will be disabled but I think this is why my pc keeps freezing. Any suggestions as to what it may be for and/or if I can get rid of it and how?

    I never downloaded a program from Tages SA so I am not sure what it could be from.
