Hi. New user, new system, new problem.
Ok, here goes... at random times, at random activities my machine freezes/ locks up:
- no keyboard response (incl. NumLock)
- no mouse response
- looping audio
- manual reset works
- no trace of foul play in the Event viewer.
It's a new system (just 2 months); did a clean Wininstall about a month ago, all drivers are up-to-date.
<---- specs.
I'm posting this to "Software" section because i just had the hardware checked out about the same problem (they replaced CPU, but i don't know if they did it just in case or found some flaw there). The threads with similar issues i have found all described the lockups at heavy-duty activities but mine happen at "slow" or idle moments too (such as in the middle of typing a message).
My question is:
What should i check / where should i look?
