Computer Freezing

[#1]

@Champnet 

For your information I received a response to my query from the computer suppliers. Good support - just a matter of hours since I emailed them earlier today.

Anyway I've attached a PDF showing their recommendations.

Worth a go, gut feeling is a problem with the disk. Has your box froze lately ?

@Champnet 

It appears to freeze only when I bring it out of hibernation so once today. Now leaving PC on during the day with the monitor switched off. Will either power down or hibernate overnight.

HDDScan doesn't work with my MVME M.2 disk but all other disks are fine.

sfc /scannow found no integrity issuues.

I'll do the memory test tomorrow.

@bmc  Does the freeze only happen when the box is brought out of hibernation as I can find no mention of that in your previous posts ? Out of interest why do you use hibernation ?

@Champnet

It's only in the past couple of days I've twigged it only happens after coming out of hibernation.

I use hibernation when I'm away from the computer for a couple of hours or overnight. It saves re-starting everything each time. However I suspect I'm going to have to change my ways - leave the computer on during the day but switch off the monitor and power down at night.

I ran the RAM memory test this morning and it came back as a Pass so I'm waiting to hear from the supplier.

Perhaps try CrystalDiskInfo (if the manufacturer doesn't provide their own software).
