Already, times in past 2 hours, win 11 completely freezes. No mouse nothing. Just a frozen screen on whatever page I was on. It just done it again for the third time in less than a half hour. I was typing this and then - nothing, it just sat there staring at me. I have just seen a monitor freezing thread, heading there now.

Make e sure to execute bellow commands from Command Prompt that is open with administrator privileges.

Code:
Sfc /scannow

Chkdsk C: /f

Scan your computer for malware infections.


  • If new device drivers or system services have been added recently, try removing or updating them. Try to determine what changed in the system that caused the new bug check code to appear.
  • Look in Device Manager to see if any devices are marked with an exclamation point (!), which indicates a problem. Review the events log displayed in the properties for any faulting device driver. Try to update the related driver.
  • Check the System Log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help pinpoint the device or driver that is causing the error. Look for critical errors in the system log that occurred in the same time window freeze.
  • If you recently added hardware to the system, try removing or replacing it. Or check with the manufacturer to see if any patches are available.
  • Install Windows updates.
  • If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't know what it is, you probably are not overclocking.
  • Use SpeedFan to monitor temperatures in computers, overheating can cause BSOD.
  • Use Memtest86+ disc to check system memory's (RAM's) for errors.
  • Use CrystalDiskInfo to check SMART health report of the hard disk drive (HDD).

In this guide, you will learn the steps to perform a clean boot on Windows 11 and Windows 10 to help you troubleshoot and determine conflicts in your setup.

Well, it's summer, and it's 96 degrees F right where I sit, here in Florida, and I'm expecting my PC to crap out on me any minute now. lol
So, maybe that's the problem with your PC. Eh?

My Gigabyte motherboard does claim to be heat resistant and my AMD CPU will only clock down when it gets hot, and not quit, so maybe I'm ok for now.

Your computer spec's do look good, but then who's to say that something still can't go wrong.
 
read another thread about monitor freezing. May be same problem so I downloaded nvid clean install or whatever mentioned in other thread. It ensures a new, clean installation. I am running on it now, also sent feedback to NVIDIA. I will run scannow shortly but with my protection, I doubt it.

You must be an administrator running a console session in order to

No good. Left pc for 5 mins, came back, frozen monitor again and no mouse either or keyboard.

Update: Went away for an hour to watch NCIS recording. Just came back, still OK. I'm baffled. Freebooter: noting found in scannow or chk
