Hello!
For a while I haven’t been able to play most games without my computer freezing and never recovering forcing me to hold the power button and turn it back on. This started happening after a Windows 10 update.
I assumed it was an OS or HDD issue so I booted Linux from a USB. I opened a game and a few seconds later it froze. Oddly enough, this time my monitor said “no signal” after this happened. I then tested to see if it was my graphics card. I turned off the graphics driver and opened a game on Windows. Left it idle for a bit and eventually it froze. I’ve looked at the GPU, CPU, and motherboard temperature and they are all normal while playing games.
I’ve gone back to a system restore point before the Windows update. Graphics driver is up to date. I’ve searched online and have found nothing that works. I’ve yet to reinstall Windows but may do soon. Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Some specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6100 Six-Core Processor
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7770
OS: Windows 10 Pro
