PC frezzes every-night
« on: June 11, 2016, 02:04:15 PM »
My pc freezes every night after five minutes starting up, but after click about 30 /40 keys it comes good for the rest of the night.

This has been going on for weeks, I know it will come good again.

make/model computer or if custom build the specs and OS version?
anything in event viewer, warnings or errors etc that are related to this?
are you sure the random key presses are necessary and its not just a time out condition in which it unfreezes?
anything specific run when this freezes or just at boot and idle and lock up?
do you think your windows installation might be corrupt in which a reinstall of the os might be the fix? ( example a program with a dirty uninstaller causing problems or malware problem that caused this to happen even when malware removed?
Is the hard drive LED showing lots of activity when it locks up like this or totally unresponsive?
Does the pointer still move when frozen or pointer is frozen unresponsive too?
Any software uninstalled or recently installed when this problem was created?
Any upgrades or hardware changes between healthy and unstable state?

CUSTOM BUILT

Win 7
4 gig
64 bit
AMD Phenom (tm) II X4 b55 processor 3.220 GHZ

There is no timer to set as far as I know.

It matters not what's open it will freeze.

Nothing has went wrong as far as I know with windows.

No malware or virus problems.

No response, pointer does not move either.

No software out or in.

No upgrades or hardware changes.

So after this 1 time event after boot the system runs with no problems? Does this freeze up happen about at the same time after boot such as always say 3 minutes after installation or is it more random than that?

Windows event viewer is empty of any suggestions as to where the problem is?


On boot windows loads and then services stack up. If it happens almost always within a certain period of time after boot then it sounds like a service or driver that goes out to lunch and then the system comes back from frozen state after it gets past the roadblock condition. There should be event logs showing this in system management.

you can sort by errors and then look at dates they occurred and then share the most recent errors over last 14 days. If no errors then list warnings for last 14 days. Errors are more important.

Your system is definitely ill from looking at event logs. Now we have to figure out why its sick. Run crystaldiskinfo on the system and make sure your hard drive is healthy.  There are 2 Disk issues noted and HP Health keeps popping up and loadperf has quite a few errors. If the hard drive shows as healthy, do you have the installation media to reinstall clean. If its not a hardware issue then it looks to be a corrupt build. There is one fix that might work for the loadperf issue, but it could be caused by ill hardware.

More info on loadperf fix attempt: http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=214748

It looks like the performance counters are corrupted however they can be rebuilt.

Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click on the Start button and type cmd.exe in the Start Search box. Cmd.exe will appear at the top of the Menu. Rightclick on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Copy and paste the below commands after the prompt> (one line at a time) and hit Enter after each line.

Code:

cd %windir%\system32
Lodctr /R

When the rebuild is complete, you see the below message.

Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter setting from system backup store

Type exit.

Whats really odd is that you stated that this system is custom built... yet you have HP Active Health in the error log. Searching google I found another hit with someone asking how HP Active Health is on their system here. http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f217/the-hp-support-stuff-is-driving-me-insane-1046521.html it might have come from a HP software installation from a printer or something.

In the last pic with errors listed there are 147 errors, there is much more to be seen if you scroll down, where are the other error locations? Missing about 75 errors in this pic which might point to a trouble spot that goes together with other issues seen here.

I typed in crystaldiskinfo into the run and nothing happened.

I have a lot of HP prog's but not HP Active Health unless it's hidden.
