Windows 10: Windows 10 randomly freezes

Hello community, I have been having a problem with my computer and it has been perfect up until December time. It will randomly freeze during games and I have to hard shutdown the pc. I have reinstalled windows, uninstalled and reinstalled my display drivers. Even if i play a game for a little bit and close it , it still will freeze a few minutes after. I have checked all my temperatures and they run at normal temps.

Windows 10 freezes randomly

I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin

I had tried that as well... no result.
