Windows 10: Windows 10 randomly freezes

Hi, I'm having an issue with my windows 10 Pro instalation. I started getting some weird freezes, where system sort of freezes. I still can hear music, but very lagy, robotic sounding and repeating. I can still move my mouse, but I cannot interact with any windows or anything and the cursor movement is choppy. I didn't notice any particular moment when the freze happen (like opening apps, high system load etc.), seems completely random. Usaually this freze last for few seconds and i can continue my work, but few times whole system crashed into BSOD (DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION). I've already tried these methods:

I ran the windows memory check - no errors there I checked both my SSD (system one and second SSD for games) for firmware update - no new updates All my drivers are up-to-date I manually updated chipset drivers from manufacturer website Running latest non-beta version of BIOS None of these solutions seemd to help, so I did clean Windows install - Still freezes sometimes.

I'm running latest release of windows 20H2.

My PC:

Core i7-3770s 12GB of RAM (24GB kingston HyperX blu 1333, + 22 kingston low profile 1333 GTX1060 6GB GIGABYTE H77m-D3H Two 240GB SSD - non RAID 1TB 2,5" drive in external USB enclousre Does anybody have some tips where could be an error? At this point I'm not sure if the problem is Software or Hardware or something else.

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.
