Hi, not sure if this is the section to post this issue yet or not but, here's my issue:
About once or twice a week my computer just freezes, locks up makes a weird sound like the sound is trying to play but skips super fast like an old record and then, shuts down and re-boots again. My cursor locks up, everything locks up. I check my device manager and it does show an error but is not helpful at all - as usual. When it re-boots it works like nothing ever happened.
I've spent all day doing every test I can think of from the Ultimate Boot CD
* CPU test
* HD test
* memory
* video memory
not one single error to be found.
I've been using HWinfo64 to keep an eye on temps and I have NEVER seen anything beyond normal - even cooler than normal likely due to my case with all the fans.
The issue has happened while simply going thru Youtube videos, surfing the net, gaming, playing a DVD and watching a movie on Netflix. Nothing beyond gaming was intensive so, I really can't imagine what it could be.
The only issues I have noticed are that I am starting to have trouble with my motherboards USB ports appear to be crapping out on me - I've been using the X12 Turtle Beach headphones and was getting loads of static/white noise that was really bad so I switched ports to the front and it doesn't seem to be an issue so, I'm unclear if that's a symptom or not.
Anybody else ever experience this issue?
