    New built computer freezes
    « on: June 09, 2017, 12:29:44 PM »
    Hello everyone!

    I hope someone out there can help me.


    I just finished building my first computer (with help from a friend) a couple of weeks ago.
    It all went well, and it starts up just fine.

    I have been able to install Windows 10, but no more. I have not been able to update Windows to the lates updates, nor been able to install the graphic card correctly. Whenever I try to install something or change placements on files my computer freezes. If I just start my computer and just let it be, then it does not freeze as fast it can take anywhere between 10~45 min. But every time I try to install something it freezes, usually towards the end of the installation.


    My components are:
    Processor: Amd fx 9590
    Gpu:* Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1060
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P
    Ram: Crucial BallistixSport 2x8GB 1600MHz
    SSD: Kingston SSDNow UV400 240GB
    Hard drive: Seagate Barracuda 2TB (not connected yet though)
    Power supply: Fractal Design Integra M 650W
    Cooler: Cooler MAster Hyper 212 Evo


    I have Windows installed on the SSD and plan on installing the graphic card on it aswell. I have checked the compatibility of the RAM with the motherboard. The store I bought the components from were kind enough to let me check if the RAM or SSD was broken, but I was not. The RAM, CPU and tempature values are normal when it freezes.


    Can anyone help me?
    (Not sure if this is a hard- or software problem but i have posted this on the hardwere forum aswell)

    Best regards
    Olle

    No need to double post. If this is a hardware question, the post will be moved later.
    Is this the 64 bit version of Windows 19? Do you know the build number?
    Windows 10 will allow you to repair your installation. Have you tried that?
    Can you get into the Internet?
    How did you measure the temps?
