    Computer locks up randomly


    I have a home built computer. MSI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI motherboard, 3600x processor, 32 GB corsair vengeance DDR4 3200, EVGA 1070 graphics card. Win 10 64 bit version 2004.

    I get random computer lock ups while watching youtube. It seems to happen only while watching youtube. I can watch movies with no issues. I have changed the memory with no change to the issue. I have updated all drivers, error checked my main drive, ran SFC scan now with no luck. I changed from Firefox to Brave with the lock up still happening. When the lock ups occur, the system is completely unresponsive, all sound and video stops and ctrl-alt-delete does not work. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

    :)

    Computer Randomly locks up

    Ok, so my dads pc (its in sp) completely randomly locks up.

    Im not sure what the deal is.

    it was working fine, i swapped boards and it game me a memory error but no big deal, fixed that. now, it locks up a few times a day, whether it is in the bios, or post screen, windows, trying to format windows ect.

    Im not sure what to do! if its the board i'll rma it and give him "back" the P45 but if its ram or hdd idk...

    what do you suggest?

    My computer will randomly go to the lock screen


    Hey I'm having this problem as well. It started late last week/earlier this week. Bumping this thread. Laptop (running Wi 10) randomly cuts to lock screen and makes me re input my password. I looked at the solution posted above but I want to keep my computer's lock screen. I just want to stop it from locking randomly.
