Thank you for taking the time to read through this nonsense! People have suggested it could be the mobo failing If I was to hazard a guess, I would think it was the RAM.

Finally, I've checked temps and other business and it's fine, a cool, crisp 40 degrees max for the CPU and about 70 on load for the GPU.ĭoes anyone have any ideas? I would love to put this to bed once and for all.

No other events are showing up, it's a real git. But a GPU error wouldn't cause all of the other elements of the PC to stop responding like that with only sound playing. The answer is this:Īs you can see, the Display driver crashes constantly and recovers constantly after the overall freeze, this is, I assume, where the black screen comes from. Unseated and re-seated all components, checked Mobo for bulging capacitors etc.Ĭhecked the event viewer where it mentions absolutely bugger all about anything UNTIL the moment of the crash, at the time of the crash, I have tried leaving it for a bit and seen what happens. Googled every combination of this and found out that it could be the PSU, the RAM, the MOBO or possibly the GPU. Uninstalled every GPU driver with DDU and then reinstalled - Updated Mobo and other drivers. Ran a memtest: Memory failed the hammer test but apparently this is a common occurrence.

Processor: Intel I7-4820k CPU I have tried:.

RAM: Some Teamgroup rubbish I picked up like, 7 years ago.

The computer requires a reset using the reset button, I can power down with any button but the reset does the trick. The computer itself remains functional, HDD light remains stable and occasionally blinks, all MOBO lights are on, fans are all running. Spotify will reel through every song on the playlist before eventually crapping out itself. Beyond those 4 seconds, the whole thing becomes unresponsive.

In the meantime, Spotify can continue running, and for about 4 seconds after the crash I can use keyboard controls to change the song or whatever. Suddenly, the PC locks up for about a second and then both screens go black. So, main problem is in the title, I can be doing literally ANYTHING from playing games to word processing to being sat on my arse listening to music with no background programs other than Spotify. Right so, bear with me here, hoping the machine doesn't crash again while I write this. Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me confirm something before I make a move.
