computer randomly freezing for a few seconds to several minutes
For the last week I've been extremely frustrated by my computer randomly freezing for a few seconds to several minutes without errors, cpu spikes or anything.
No Viruses, no registry errors, drives were defragged. Mem test was run overnight win 0 errors. Drives error checked with no issues. All services and startup items reset to windows defaults. I thought I had it narrowed down to my Win 7 drive but if that had no errors it had to be something else. I finally saw a mention of power settings in my search for solutions and remembered I'd altered the power schemes because it was recommended in the new AVID optimization video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obSfEV1oRV8 I changed them back to defaults, and I don't want to jinx it but it's back to normal now. At least I didn't start throwing money at the problem but seriously What THE EFFFF????!!!!!!!!

Re: AVID suggested Power Settings made PC worse
Well it's still freezing. So I have no idea what the cause is. It did improve right after changing the power scheme but didn't fix it entirely.
I also reset the bios to default.

Re: AVID suggested Power Settings made PC worse
Ya know, I'm have the same issue, that just started and only happens when using certain plugins...In my case TL drum rehab. There are 2 things that changed on my computer recently...
1)iTunes 10, which I'm sure also did a fresh Quicktime install 2)IE9 beta My problem isn't really intermittent and for the most part I've figured out specific things I can avoid doing to prevent it. I was just wondering if you had installed either of these updates recently before I try to downgrade and see if that returns my system to stable? Otherwise I'll just wait for 8.0.5 or whatever. |
