    Random freezing Windows 10


    Hello, my Windows 10 has been freezing randomly with no blue screen and no event log. I haven't found any discernible pattern in the crashes, whether I am gaming, drawing, or browsing the web, and I have tried updating drivers.

    For some reason it isn't allowing me to activate Windows, could this be part of the issue?

    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Random freezing Windows 10

    Yes. Probably the huge reason why.
    Questions :
    1. How long ago since you have this "not activated" Windows 10 ?
    2. Which Windows 10 version do you have. Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Home ?
    3. Before this, what Windows operating system was the computing running ?
    Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 ? Was it activated back then ?

    Well, I have always had this not activated Windows 10 since I upgraded back in October of last year.
    I'm running Windows 10 Pro and upgraded from Windows 7.

    I am surprised you are still able to use a Win 10 system which has not been activated since October last year.

    What Windows 7 version you had. Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate ?

    Did you replace with a new hard drive after the old one crashed ?
    Was motherboard replaced as well ?

    I replaced the hard drive, but didn't replace the motherboard until a week ago when I upgraded most of my hardware.

    Why couldn't you activate Windows 10 Pro ?

    You do have Win 7 Ultimate product key, do you ?

    I really do not know. I tried the key I had but it didn't work, I tried calling support but they wouldn't help me after I explained my situation. I even tried to become a insider to get an insider build but that didn't help activate it either.

    I apologize for continuously asking questions without offering a solution.
    But I can't help unless I understand the situation completely.

    OK. See if this will work.
    You are going to a clean install of Windows 10 Pro.

    Use one of the 2 links below and download the ISO file.

    Media Creation Tool (MCT)
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...load/windows10

    Tech Bench
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/softw...load/techbench



    Once the iso is downloaded, burn it to a bootable DVD or USB.
    Us your F key ( likely F12 key ) to set the boot order to DVD or USB, depending on which bootable media you are using > insert the bootable media > restart computer.
    Installation will be gin.
    You will be asked for product key. Use your Win 7 Ultimate key.
    If it is accepted, installation should continue without problem.
    Activation will be automatic.

    Good luck.
