  1. Computer pausing problem


    Hi,

    I recently did the upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 8, it worked fine for day, then it blanked out and now about every second, the screen pauses for a second and carries on as if nothing happened. Is there any solution to this?

    Thanks,

    :)

    Run HDtune (free version) on you hard drive. but most likely that the problem. You can also test your memory with Memtest86 as suggested above

    Computer pausing problem

    Does this computer build have compatibility problems? Opinions welcomed!

    Lets start with what you're going to use this computer for, not what you want to put in it.

    Rules/steps to building a computer (in chronological order):
    First rule: Determine what your needs are.
    Second rule: Define your budget.
    Third rule: Pick parts.
    Fourth rule: Review parts several times.
    Fifth rule: Buy said parts.
    Sixth rule: Build it.

    You are on rule/step 1. Go through the list until you're done.
