    Fresh Win10 install, intermittent freezing


    Brand new Alienware Aurora R9, wiped with fresh install fully patched Win 10 Home. I installed only Chrome, nVidia GeForce Experience and up-to-date drivers, and one game, and started experiencing occasional freezes. I thought the machine had locked up and that perhaps I had corrupted something during a RegEdit session to change a stupid MS install option, so I re-wiped everything and re-installed.


    This time around, I installed again the nVidia stuff, Chrome, but nothing else, no games, no apps. I didn't touch the registry and was very careful to fully patch and keep everything pristine and clean. Still, the freezes occurred. I waited for about 20-30 seconds to see if it was truly a lockup and the machine was eventually released back to me. It's almost as though I had encountered a severe lag spike which froze all the action and then managed to recover after 30-40 seconds. It happens only once or twice a night, and lasts for about 30-40 seconds or so, but is consistent since I did the install. No matter what app I'm in now, a game, the web, the freezes come.


    It's a brand new rig, all diagnostics report clean health, no issues. What could be causing this? Thanks for any insights or suggestions.

    :)

    Windows Vista Wont Install Freezes?

    had the same problem, freezes and long installation including each step loading, in my case a bios update helped.

    How to fresh install Win10 while old system is still bootable?

    I did all these steps and I keep doing them after each PC freeze.

    95% of the time SFC and DISM commands don't find anything to fix, as in, no issues found.

    Other than a clean install of the drivers, the next thing is to install the entire OS, since someone suggested that this fixed his issue.
