    Hey /r/windows10,

    Time to use this subreddit for some tech support rather than just getting neat tools I'll never use.

    Trying to help out my uncle with his PC and I am running into an issue that I cannot find a solution for.

    Their computer freezes randomly, while using it or while its been idle for a while. Pressing ctrl alt delete and then hitting cancel instantly fixes it.

    I found two pages with the same issue: first, second, neither of the fixes listed worked.

    I tried DSIM, SFC, Disabling Services, Defrag for the fun of it, Disabling Startup apps, unplugging the mouse (like on page said), and I am just looking for more umbrella fixes / if someone knows what the issue could be so I can further look it up and get more things to try.

    Thanks in advance for any help, no clue what else to try.

    EDIT: Sorry AutoMod, its on the latest public build, fist thing I checked.

    Looking for some advice on this build

    Alright. I think have pretty much finalized my parts list decisions. One final request for a look over to make sure there's no fatal incompabilities I may be missing. Suggestions for changes are still welcome, but I think I'm pretty settled here. Excluded is the case fromt his list, which I ordered from ISTExpress, Getting a CM Storm Sniper, and already have a used optical drive.
