Hey all
Not sure whether this thread is in the right place or not if so please inform me and i will move it
however! this is my issue
about a week ago my computer started freezing randomly (have had no issues with it whatsoever since I have built it) the mouse and keyboard will be unresponsive BUT sound and anything visual still works its not like the whole thing is freezing up its just the mouse and keyboard. mostly freezes when I am in-game and at the moment it freezes within the first 5-10 minutes of play time when it first started it was once every 3-4 hours, now I am unable to play a game without it freezing and then restarting my pc (by hard booting which I don't like doing anyway)
it does not happen when in windows or using the internet just in game which I am not really sure
These are the things I have already done as creating my own thread about an issue is the last thing I usually do however I think I know what the issue is and that's the Motherboard...anyway!
I checked that all my devices and motherboard and GFX Card is up to date which they are
Reinstalled windows (started on windows 7, installed Windows 8 is still happening)
Formatted and had a complete fresh start as it where
tried using different mice and keyboards
currently this is all I can think of that I have done
My current computer build is
i5 2500k - CPU
Gigabyte Z68X-UD5-B3 - Motherboard
8gb Corsair Vengeance - RAM
2Tb Hamachi - Hard Drive
Windows 8 64bit
Gainward GTX 580 Phantom 3gb - GFX Card
Corsair TX 850 - PSU
If anyone reads this thank you! for taking the time to do so and if someone can help it will be greatly appreciated, if you need more information just let me know and I can provide
thanks again!
