I'm new to the forum and hope I am posting in the right section.
I have an issue where my computer freezes randomly. I've done a lot of searches and it seems like problem can be anything from softwares to hardwares.
My problem does not have frequently. Once it happened right after I started windows and just browsing through files (in first 5 min since boot). Other times it happened after 6+ hours of using computer and gaming. More often, it freezes every once in a long time.
What happens is screen freezes and I can't move anything. My computer doesn't make any louder noises and just stops being active.
I have reinstalled the windows, tried using it without any drivers except video card but still happened after hours of gaming.
This is a newly assembled computer and is stressing me out very much.
Here are my computer specs:
CPU: AMD 64 x2 Toledo 4800+
MOBO: K8N SLI ABIT board
RAM: 4 sticks of Corsair valueselect 3200 1Gig (512mb a stick) two dual chan
Graphic Card: Leadtek Winfast 7900GT 256mb
PSU: Antec Truepower 2.0 500 Watts
HDD: WD 7200RPM 250GB SATA
All parts are brand new.
I used to have BSOD problem with this comp (right after assemly) but went after I uninstalled the NFROCE firewall.
I no longer have BSOD problem but comp still freezes once in a while.
Any ideas? I would like to get this solved before my school starts next week.
