    My pc is freezing


    i need some help, so randomly during playing stuff as simple as minecraft and only having yt, discord, and spotify opens after some time my pc becomes very choppy like its fluttering from 1 fps to 12fp but my fps count is stable, then after like 5 seconds of it being choppy my pc completely stops responding except i can move my cursor around

    :)

    Hello,

    To isolate your Windows 10 freezing issue, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Aside from this error, are you also getting other error codes or messages?
    • Where do you usually experience this freezing issue? Is it during startup?
    • Other troubleshooting steps you've tried so far?

    Looking forward to your response.

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    My pc is freezing

    GPU-Z 0.7.8 / 0.7.9 / 0.8.0 Bios reading not possible GTX670-solved with gpu-z 0.8.1

    @Maban - does GPU-Z fail the same way for you the way it does for me? I.e. total system freeze/lockup, requiring a hard reset?

    @W1zzard - I will try the suggested steps later today, as I am not near that PC at the moment.

  2. Why is the downloads folder freeze bug STILL happening after all these years?

    in Windows 10 Gaming
    Why is the downloads folder freeze bug STILL happening after all these years?: Windows 11, but it's an issue which has followed me through several laptops and editions of Windows. Solutions suggested by "experts" don't work. Will this ever be solved, or are we destined to have Microsoft throw up their hands and say Nothing To Be Done forever?...
