    Screen Freezes but Audio Still There -- Need to Hard Restart. Help?


    Hello all, so let me elaborate the subject by explaining my problem.


    I am using an Acer Nitro 5 laptop AN515-43-R2WK. This has been happening for the past 3 days. There's no specific moment or scenario that triggers this; but this all happens randomly. Sometimes whenever I watch videos, the screen turns dark for a bit and then returns to normal then the freeze begins. I never experienced this when playing games though, only when browsing or doing something else. Whenever it occurs, I need to hard reset my PC. I haven't found any fixes so that's why I am asking here, what should I do to determine the cause and how to fix it? Thank you!


    Here are my specs:


    CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3750H 2.3 ghz

    GPU Display: AMD Radeon RX Vega 10 Graphics

    GPU Render: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650

    RAM: DDR4 16GB

    :)

    Freezes on restart


    Device is up to date, however from either the Start menu or Command prompt Windows freezes at manufacturer splash screen on restart, requiring hard shutdown,
    This returns even after clean install of Windows 10

    suggestions or recommendations *Sick

    Windows Audio doesnt work, everytime a restart is required to bring back the audio

    Hi Anthony,

    Thanks for providing suggestions. I have tried all the listed troubleshooting before I raise an question over here.

    None of the things helped....in few steps it makes Audio work(Only because of the Restart that is made) again if I shutdown my system and start back after couple of minutes/hours audio doesn't work.

    Thank You!!
