Solve : custom built computer random freezing? |
|
Answer» ever since I bought this computer it just randomly freezes... normally when opening programs it will freeze for 30 seconds and even the audio will go out until the computer unfreezes.... if i'm lucky the whole computer will just restart MAYBE with a blue screen (like holding the power button till turns off and then pressing it again) will also do this same thing most every time (but not every time) i'm trying to go on the internet but only when loading a new page or refresh in IE, chrome and in Firefox doesn't matter the browser mostly see it with video/audio Pros: It is cheap, easy to install and boosts performance when it actually works correctly..................(see "cons") If you have a free SATA hard drive of 40GB capacity or larger, I'd use macrium reflect and clone the 32GB SSD to that and run the system without the SSD and see if it cures it. Additionally what do event logs show in windows as for the suggestion I made was a shotgun approach based on negative feedback I found for that SSD. The good thing is the CPU, RAM are good quality. The ASUS feedback for that ITX board SHOWS some negative feedback for issues, but that SSD I am targeting right now as a probable cause. **Knowing the make/model of the power supply would help to as for a power supply that isnt powering properly can cause instability issues.ssd isn't the problem as I can reproduce the same problems with an HHD.... I don't have the ssd in it anymore I have a 160 GB western digital 2.5" HHD in it's place (all I had)... I cloned the ssd to the hdd.... it would be a total hassle to get any drives that are for hardware that isn't made by the big companies (Intel, Asus, Ect) if I have to wipe and start fresh.... the touch screen it made by the computer builder and I would have to email them for the driver that's like pulling teeth but the company is great! but on second note there is so much room in this case for most anything I would like to do except for adding any video card (any of the good ones i'd want)... no way possible the case is not tall and not long enough for any of the modern GTX cards (titan x(p), 1080, and 1070)Builders don't "make" touchscreens...and of the Co. is great it shouldn't be pulling teeth to get drivers from them... Any Yellow !!'s in Device Manager ? ? none of those in device manager and not as hard as I'm saying just have to email them for drivers and they will give them to me... the touch screen is a frame that they make and goes over a monitor that they sellBest of Luck...never heard of one.ya the frame takes any monitor and makes it a touchscreen but I don't use it.... I use a 30" monitor as my main monitor..... but that's not my problem... i'm having issues with this system freezingIs the RAM on the MBoard QVL list ? ?....what are your Temps like ? ? Quote from: patio on September 12, 2016, 10:15:12 AM Is the RAM on the MBoard QVL list ? ?....what are your Temps like ? ? don't know what you meanjust loading google.com to go get some things made it freeze and my audio stop working when frozen... and it just freezes, unfreezes, and freezes again.... if I'm lucky it will blue screen... this just started happening but I just turned off automatic restart on blue screen to see what it is as it restarts too quick for me to see what it is... and normally it blue screens when not frozenAll MBoards have a QVL list for RAM...it means the RAM on their list has been specifically lab tested on that MBoard...and approved. ram looks to be on the QVL list via this page http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1150/H81M-A/H81M-A_memory_QVL.pdf my highest temp via SpeedFan is temp1 57 C but didn't know what temp you wanted exactly and looks like my CPU fan is running at a constant 2295 RPM DLoad and run MemTest...follow the guide for making a boot CD/USB device.... Let it run at least 1 hour...any errors at all = a bad RAM stik |
