    Computer sometimes freezes completely. Audio starts to repeat


    I had an issue pop up a few days ago and its happened three times within the past day.
    It happened once without the lock screen while i was watching a twitch stream and playing a video game.
    The other two times I locked my screen and left for a few minutes when I cam back the mouse was frozen and 0 responses from keyboard and mouse. Nothing worked until i hard reset using the pc switch. Not sure what is causing this its driving me crazy.

    OS Build 18363.778

    Hi there J, I will be your Independent Advisor for today, I hope we can both resolve your problem.

    What I can suggest is DELETE completely all the Audio drivers listed in the device manager.

    There should be a small box that you can tick to delete completely the Audio driver.
