Windows 10: Random unresponsiveness and hang after recent Windows updates

Hi, I have been experiencing with some really frustrating system issues after the January update. The system would randomly become unresponsive, and clicking on any app icon will not do anything.

Windows Update suddenly hangs?

Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?

 

Intermittent black screen/hang while doing random tasks

Hi All, I recently assembled a desktop PC (detailed specs provided in profile system 2). I have started observing intermittent black screen while using this PC. All of a sudden the PC will become unresponsive, screen goes black, keyboard and mouse are also unresponsive. However, I can seen that the system is running, but I am unable to get it back without a reset. This has been troubling me quite a bit as its unpredictable when it will hang/black screen will appear. I am running on all the latest AMD Radeon drivers and also updated to the latest version of the OS(Windows 10 Pro 21H1). I have checked the event logs, but did not find anything mentioned there based on the timeline of these hangs. Any help/suggestion to resolve this issue is highly appreciated. Regards,
