Firstly my spec -
Gigabyte b85m-d2v
i7 4771
8gb 1600 2x4gb
60gb ssd c drive
1tb 7200 2nd drive
windows 7 Professional fully update
evga 600b psu

Ok, when i start my pc it randomly freezes on the windows logo, the logo doesn't actually appear just a black screen, its does this at complete random points and the only way to fix it is to switch of my psu and then turn it back on, where i get a "windows was not shut down correctly" message and i just start normally and all is fine. It only ever pauses at the windows logo, pc boots fine, but i have noticed that when the issues happens for a 2nd time in a row and i have to manually switch of the psu twice say within a minute the pc wont turn on when i hit the power switch, i have to leave it about 10-20 seconds then hit power and it works.

Any idea what the issue is here? My thoughts are motherboard/driver issue as it gets to the windows logo before freezing, i was thinking the pc not turning on after manually switching of the psu twice in quick concession may just be a psu fail safe?

 
Erm i would say a few months since i installed the os, i dont think its overheating as it works fine after shutting down the psu manually, also i have a cooler master seidon 120v water cooler on my cpu which idles around 30 degrees, I definitely think its os/driver issues as it only crashes at starting windows logo which i believe is when all the drivers etc are loaded. Is there any way to test which driver may be causing it or if my os is corrupted?
 
yes genuine, but i can get into windows eventually, i get to starting windows and it doesnt show the windows logo animation just black, so i shut down psu and turn it back on and it works, just says windows didnt shut down properly, it doesnt happen all the time just random occasions. Possible driver issue?
