new installed win7? - shortjar592 - 04-28-2014 08:31 PM
This is my first building a desktop computer. So after my installation of Windows 7 and many hardware drivers, I've found that my computer will unpredictably freeze (this happens the most when I use the internet browser(google chrome)) and get "program is not responding" messages when running other programs on the computer. Sometimes it even freezes opening Recycle Bin or folders. I'm wondering if it's the hardware compatible issue or the missing drivers issue. (BIOS settings are also default so far)
The following are the components I use:
1) motherboard: MSI 970-G46
2) CPU: AMD FX 6300 6-core 3.5GHZ
3) RAMs: G. Skill 8GB (4GB*2)
4) graphic card: Asus GTX750-OC-2GD5
5) Hard Drive: WD 1TB
6) SSD: Samsung 120GB (I installed my Win7 and every program on it so far)
7) power supply: ANTEC 80+ Bronze 620W

I don't think it is going to be something in the BIOS. Most likely it is an issue with a device driver and/or piece of hardware. Make sure that you have the latest version of the drivers, all of the Microsoft updates, and that any firmware has been updated, such as the latest BIOS, SSD, etc.
After you do this, run the Microsoft Memory Diagnostic.
