Windows 10: Sudden Screen Freeze After Every Few Minutes in Windows 10 Home

For the past 2-3 days my PC started to freeze randomly after every few minutes.

First time it froze on desktop,second time in the middle of the game and third time in the middle of movie.

I haven't changed anything in my PC.

So, why is Windows 10 64 Bit Home started to act like this suddenly?

Is any update or service pack in work to fix this issue?

Windows 7 freezes for 1 minute

My custom built rig has lately, in the past 2 months or so, been having these spits of freezing. It will freeze for exactly 1 minute: always 1 minute, every time. I can time it down to the second.

The weird thing is that when it freezes, some programs seem to be immune to it. When playing a full screen game, video and audio will freeze (though not always at the same time, sometimes one or the other will lag). Playing a 3D game in windowed mode seems to be immune to it however. Windows explorer and Firefox always seems to freeze, but Windows Messenger (including video call) will work as normal even while everything else is frozen. After a minute has passed, everything is back to normal. It happens at irregular intervals: sometimes it will happen then happen again 30 seconds later, and sometimes I can go hours without the problem.

It's a bit bizarre and I'm not sure what is causing it. The fact that it is always exactly 1 minute makes me think it's some dumb program checking for an update or something, but I can't pin it down.

Any ideas appreciated.

 

Weird freeze, pink screen?

I recently purchased a PNY 8800GTS 512mb and so far it was been awesome. BUT. On startup I will start my browser or something after windows finishes loading and I will see the screen sort of flicker with a pink tint to it. It will be fine for a few minutes and then all of sudden my screen will turn solid neon pink and freeze up. Strangely enough, my mouse still works and shows up fine on top of the pink screen?

What gives?
