Windows 10: Freezing up

Since this past fall (2018) my HP laptop will occasionally freeze. I get a message saying a page I am trying to go to is "unresponsive" and giving me the option to wait or exit the page. Clicking on either of these options does not make a difference. The pages I have open on other tabs are frozen. I cannot bring up the start menu and "Control-alt-delete" does not come up when I try. The only option seems to be to shut down the computer, using the power button as the start menu does not come up. I am using the Chrome browser. Any suggestions or thoughts?

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
