I want Help with Persistent Computer Freezing Any Ideas?

gwennadf · November 18, 2024, 11:21am

Hey everyone,

I want advice on my PC. My PC has been freezing randomly sometimes it is right after startup, other times it happens when I am in the middle of something. The freezes last anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes & nothing seems to help except restarting the system.

Also I have tried the usual troubleshooting steps restarting in safe mode, checking for system updates & running a few scans for malware but nothing seems to fix it. I am wondering if it is a hardware issue or maybe a driver conflict?

As well, I found these resources when doing research on this; https://mybrokencomputer.net/t/docker-not-running-properly-on-windows-need-help sf-features & If anyone has dealt with something similar or has any suggestions on please share.

Thank you…….

First off @gwennadf welcome to the forum.

As a first step, can you provide more info?

As @brighty1990 mentioned, can you please share your hardware specifics?
What are you using the computer for? Gaming, editing, browsing, etc
What OS are you using?

Assuming Windows, one of my go to tools is msconfig. Click start, type in msconfig, hit enter, go to the startup tab, and disable everything you do not need or recognize. Look for the ones with high startup impact.
