Kernel issue? Windows 10 deny access to graphics drivers...

[marxr87]

Hi all,

Embedded video and gifs are freezing my computer up. This started like 2 days ago. The entire computer freezes up (can't move cursor, or bring up task manager) for a few seconds. Then it either fails to load, or loads normally, or I get a notification saying windows denied something access to the graphics drivers.

I asked a developer friend about it, and after a few second in task manager watching the spikes, said it appears to be a kernel issue?

He isn't familiar with windows so he said he needs some time to figure it out. In the mean time, I was hoping reddit could help me!

Thank you

I'm sure reddit will have alot to say about this )
Joke aside, what are your specs, and what(browser?) does this happen in?
Also are Win and your graphics drivers upto date?

ahahah! I forgot to edit the post Tom's has been much more helpful

I've tried Edge and Chrome. I've checked all my drivers.

I'm using a Gigabyte 5850, Asus P8P67 Deluxe, I5 2500. I'm a windows insider.

I can't recall. I was gone for the weekend and when I returned it was like this. No possibility of anyone else being on it. It has been quite humid here and I leave the windows open. Could it be moisture?
