Windows 10: Freezing on new- motherboard, fresh install

Hi,

My desktop was getting BSODs and freezing. Since I am not good at PC troubleshooting I've taken it to repair... twice.

One tech said it was the motherboard, so I got a new one, had it installed and also upgraded by 150 SSD to a 250 GB SSD, then I started having problems booting into windows.

I then took it to a second tech who said it was a driver graphics driver issue and reinstalled windows and updated the graphics driver.

Since I got it back from second tech the BSODs have stopped but it is still freezing. Sometimes once a day, sometimes once every ten minutes. It happens most often when I am watching videos (such as youtube, netflix or vlc player) but also when the computer is just idling. The only way to get it back to normal is to restart. I haven't really installed anything since I got it back except office 365 for work.

I searched the issue online and have tried the following fixes:

-Adjusting/Increasing Virtual Memory
-Disabling the C states in the BIOS.
-Changing the power to high performance.
- "Paused" all windows updates

I've attached the zip file as per forum instructions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fresh Install Windows 10 Freezing

I have just purchased new hardware and installed it. I have then done a fresh install of Windows 10.

Randomly the Computer will Freeze. And I have to Power off and Power back on.

System Specs.

• Intel Core i7 5930K @ 3.50GHz
• ASRock X99 Extreme4/3.1 Motherboard
• 16 GB DDR4 Kingston HyperX Fury
• GTX 980 TI

I have tried the sfc/scannow, it found an error and fixed it. But it still freezes.

My gfx card drivers are up to date using 355.82 WHQL.

I have also ran the System Maintenance troubleshooter and that found no issues.

I have been using a hardware monitor and the CPU temperature is around 30 Degress C when it freezes, so its no overheating.

Help please

Fresh Install of Windows 10 on a "new motherboard"

Hi

I was just wondering what the process was for a fresh install. I'm currently upgrading to a new motherboard and my current machine already has windows 10. After some digging I found that windows 10 doesn't play nice when it comes to upgrading major components
of a PC. So is there a way I could transfer my old (windows 7) product key and use it to reactivate my window 10 again on a new motherboard?

Thanks
