Windows 10: DistributedCOM warning 10016 keeps freezing/crashing my PC randomly

Hi,just got a new pc, freshly installed twice and everything. It's brand new hardware, everything updated to the latest version BIOS, drivers, firmwares, ... . I've done a sfc /scannow, which 'repaired' 100 errors. I've done a memorycheck and everything.It started first when Oculus Rift was running and hardware was plugged in. I disabled the Digital Audio Nvidia drivers as suggested and also a Windows System Check. Which seemed to help, at first. It didn't crash anymore during use of Oculus Rift software/hardware with other applications open like Chrome and such.But it still crashes/free

:)

 

DistributedCOM error 10016 PC crashing / freezing (no blue screen)

Hi,

DistributedCOM error 10016 is an event in Event Viewer that usually occurs when
Microsoft components tries to access DCOM components without the required permissions. This event is not usually the cause of the PC crashing / freezing error. The performance error that you're experiencing can be the cause of a third
party service. Kindly perform a clean boot to see if the computer will crash / freeze while the third party
services are disabled.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Computer freezing randomly...

Hey,

My computer has started to have moments where it freezes beyond responsiveness, even the lights on my keyboard freeze (they're animated). I can't do anything other than press the reset button on my PC and everything works fine, but the random freezing is
getting too frequent.
