    Windows freeze


    I upgraded from 7 to 10, clean install. It froze mid-installation, freezes on startup, on shutdown, or randomly while the computer is on. Once it freezes, there's nothing I can do but restart.

    Before upgrading, Win 7 had minor freezes when the PC was idle. My friends and I tried various things the past 3 days to no avail. We decided to downgrade to Win 8.1, same problem. Then we completely gave up on it and downgraded back to Win 7, but now even Win 7 freezes, I can barely get past the startup screen. Sometimes it's stuck on startup with a blackscreen and the cursor visible. It even freezes on safe mode.

    While on Win 10 we ONCE had an error code "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR"

    Specs:
    CPU
    Intel Core i7 4820k @ 3.70GHz Quadcore

    RAM
    16,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz

    Motherboard
    Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. X79-UD3

    GPU
    MSI GeForce RTX 2060 6GB Ventus XS OC

    Hard Drive
    223GB SanDisk SDSSDA240G ATA Device (SATA (SSD))

    Power Supply
    600 Watt

    Temperature is around 30-40 °C when idle.
