  1. Windows freezes randomly


    Hi there,


    My cousin was still using Windows 7 so I just decided to help her and install the Windows on her PC using the USB installation media tool. However, the installation froze randomly at the "Getting Ready screen". I tried to install it again and it went through the installation. But when I copied a file to a different folder, it froze again. By "froze" I mean the computer is unresponsive, meaning I can't move the mouse or do anything. The screen just froze. When I tried to restart the laptop, it froze at "Restarting" screen. I've attached some images below. Could you please help me with this? I think it's hardware failure but have no idea what causes this.

    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.
