Hello! Ever since the latest feature update for Windows 10, I've been experiencing periodic freezes that force me to completely turn off my machine and reboot it.
Listed below are the specs for my machine:
OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Version 10.0.16299 Build 16299
System Type x64-based PC
Processor AMD FX(tm)-8300 Eight-Core Processor, 3300 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 16.0 GB DDR3
Graphics Card nVidia GeForce GTX 1060 3 GB
When the crashes have happened has been variable; in one instance, upon loading Google Chrome and trying to access a website, the computer froze. It has crashed in the middle of running some gaming applications like Overwatch, but weirdly seems to crash more often when trying to boot Overwatch as well.
Troubleshooting steps taken:
Used Blizzard's Repair option to fix Overwatch (but the crashes still continued after, so the below steps were taken)
Updated graphics drivers to latest version
Double-checked virtual memory to make sure it is at a desired level
Used rkill and Malwarebytes to check for any malware (no malicious software was detected)
It'd be nice if my machine would give me the courtesy of giving me a blue screen so I can get an error code, but unfortunately that hasn't happened yet. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
