I've had this problem for a few weeks now. My computer will start up, and seconds after I log in the entire system will completely freeze. I cannot move the mouse, cannot use the keyboard, it completely locks up. This happens at completely random times, so it might happen 10 times in a row, or it will be fine 10 times. I've no way of knowing what is causing it. It will only happen within seconds of login, if it doesn't freeze then the computer will be fine until I restart it again.
I can use Safe mode 100% of the time. I had been dealing with the problem by just hard resetting and hoping the next login would be fine. But it seems to be getting more frequent or something?
Things I've tried that haven't worked:
- Setting everything to the default in the BIOS
- Updating all drivers
- Changing what programs start on startup
- used windows repair disk to fix start up - nothing
- checked with memtest no ram problems
- using a ssd no hd problems
- re-seated ram/cpu/gfx
- No new hardware or software
Does anyone have any ideas? I've googled the hell out of this problem and tried everything that I found was suggested and just when I think something might have worked - BOOM, lock up time. I built the computer myself so no helpline!
- ASROCK H77 PRO
- GeForce GTX 650
- Samsung 128GB SSD
- Core i5-3470 @ 3.20GHz
