    Hello everyone. =) Alright, so here's the problem. I had just recently re-formatted my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7. After re-formatting, my screen now randomly freezes. I can still move my mouse around, but I cant click on a single thing. The intervals that it happens in is totally random and sometimes it will freeze anywhere from a few secs to a few minutes and other times I have to restart. The computer is only a little over a year old and it is my first time every experiencing such an issue on this computer. Hope someone can help me out here. Thanks. *Please note that I have attached a DxDiag log below.

    Greetings, dman90...

    Couple of quickies: in Safe Mode, do you have the same symptoms? If there's a change, try reinstalling your device drivers...

    Also, check everything without the USB drives installed...

    Keep us posted...

    Hi

    Also as well as the above steps, do tell us the below

    1. Any devices in Device Manager with yellow ! marks, if so what?
    2. Have you tried Safe Mode to see if it still happens? if it doesnt crash or freeze then likely as pointed out, double check your device drivers and main ones are re-install Chipset and reboot then install latest Graphic drivers and LAN drivers.
    3. What security software do you have installed? please name all, and to test disable or uninstall them all, reboot and test your PC.

    Errors as pointed out above will be very helpful, but do if you have loads of them paste them into a notepad text file and attach them as per these instructions HERE cheers.

    A)Tried staying in safe mode for a little bit and was not encountering any problems. Then again, like I've said before, it happens in totally random intervals. Sometimes it will go 3-4 hours before freezing. So I can't be too sure.
    B)Okay, so I uninstalled and re-installed all of my drivers. Currently installing the chipset for my motherboard.
    C)Everything looks good in device manager (no errors)
    D)I'm currently using Bitdefender for my AV and never have had a problem with it.
    E)I'm getting tons of errors in event viewer and am not sure which ones would be related so I'm just going to include all of them in a text file.
    F)Should I flash/upgrade my BIOS?
