Hello TSG forum, this is my post!
I'm facing a strange problem, I have googled for this symptom, but I still think this is an unique case so I want to make a new thread.
Here's my computer specs:
Antec 700W PSU
MB: Asus P7T55D
RAM: Adata 4+2x2 Gb 1600
CPU: Intel core i5 750, stock clock
GPU: Inno 3D GTX 770 (factory overclocked, installed about a month or two ago)
SSD: Intel 128Gb
Several HDDs for data and game
I now have the issue of the application freezes (whether it's any games or firefox, or chrome, or media player). In an in-game environment, the screen freezes and the audio clips itself. If I was using a web browser with windows media player next to the browser window, the browser would freeze but the video plays smoothly. The CPU and GPU monitor shows that during the freeze their activity drops to zero.
I'm very sure this isn't a hardware problem, and I accepted this could be a lengthy bug hunting. So here's what I did so far
1. Ran Malwarebytes and quarantined all detected malwares
2. Checked nVidia drivers for update. Honestly the latest firmware is very buggy to begin with. But it wouldn't spread the crashes to Windows environment surely?
3. Ran health check on RAM, no results
4. Ran cmd/scannow for corroupted files, no results
I'm simply out of moves. Can anyone please help?[/LIST]
