    Keyboard & Mouse Freezing~Requires Hard Reboot~Windows 10


    I have two older gaming computers that have been upgraded with solid state hard drives and I wanted to go to Windows 10 from Windows 7. Installs when well, only a few minor problems. But on using both computers I have run into the same problem. Randomly, the mouse and keyboard will freeze on both computers. Even the power button will not reboot the computers, rebooting requires unplugging and re-plugging the power cord.

    Really don't think it's a hardware problem since both computers are different manufacturers, hardware and configuration. Anyone have any ideas/solutions?

    Thanks,

    :)
