Hi
I've had my computer (the Threadripper as per signature below) in the same configuration for years now - and surprisingly it has started crashing since coming back from my summer holidays a couple of days ago.
In particular, I've noticed it happens when I run autoCAD or Brave browser - though that might be a coincidence.
The program I'm working on will stop responding (greying out) - the start menu will still come up when I push the window key, but I can't even get the task manager (ctrl-alt-del or through the taskbar). I have to hard reset.
I have already
- updated my graphics card drivers
- cleaned temporary files with Ccleaner
- ran Malwarebytes and Spybot (no issues)
- ran MemTest86 Free (pass)
- opened Event Viewer - though can't quite pinpoint what
I think the only thing I did when returning, is to update some of the minor, day-to-day software that had been out of date - as usual!
Can someone please help me find and fix the culprit?
Many thanks!
