Custom PC freezing during gaming, temperatures fine

Hello techsupport, first time here.

My PC specs are as the following: -Ryzen 1600 OC'ed to 3.8ghz -RX 580 -16gb RAM clocked at 2933mhz

When I play games (really any game installed on my computer), the game and the whole computer will occasionally freeze up (usually once a session). Temperatures seem to be fine according to Afterburner as I play, and it happens for every game (League of Legends, PUBG, Mount and Blade, etc). When this happens, I can't alt-tab or anything and I can often still hear sound. The only way to get out of the freeze is to ctrl-alt-delete and sign out or restart my computer. To counteract this, I have been leaving a word file open so that when I press sign out, it will stop a full sign out because of the save prompt.

I am not sure what is going on, the OC seems to be stable since the computer doesn't shut down outright, perhaps in the RAM? But even if its RAM I'd assume it would still shut down completely.

Any help would be appreciated, and thank you in advance!

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
