PC freeze temporarily

[linkwoodm]

Hey, so my computer has been freezing these past few days, and before it freezes it makes a reboot hard drive noise, not sure if it's the hard drive or the GPU needing re thermal pasting, but something inside reboots then makes the computer freeze for like 30 seconds, and makes everything unresponsive, internet, applications, etc.

I'm not sure if it's a GPU or hard drive related problem, any ideas? Thanks.

If you hear any noise come from your PC and it freezes this is mostly likely your hard drive failing. If you get an ssd that is imaged you should no longer have this issue. Alternately you can buy another HDD

I agree, it's most likely a failing HDD/SSD.
