Maximum PC

Hello,
I put this together and it has always froze on me some days more then others. I can play crisis for hours no issue but, the moment I try and download something it freezes. If I watch two you tube videos it freezes. I've done Ccleaner, changed ram, video cards, processor, all the same issue. Earlier I was working on a resume listening to pandora and it froze 3 times within an hour. It doesn't seem to like to download/ stream lol. Its been like this for a few months but since I rarely use it I wasn't too concerned but I figured enough was enough. I also bought another mobo an ASUS M4A87TD if anyone thinks switching that will help.

If I've left anything out please ask.

Thank-you,
Gil

The problem with things like this is it is usually a hardware issue. Start replacing parts until you find a stable solution. Some people use the Burnin program to help make this process simpler.

Are you running an antivirus and antispyware program? What browser are you running?
What version of Flash are you using?

Have you tried running with one video card for a while?

Hello,
@pcunite, Ive swapped just about everything except my motherboard.

@noghiri_x, I'm running Norton and my browser is Chrome. When I opened with Firefox it was Flash version is 11.0.1.152 and am updating to 11.1.102.63. When opening with chrome it was 11.1.102.63

@Grandpa, Im only useing one video card at a time.


Thanks,
Sorry for the late reply I was away from the computer for a while.

Run a deep scan with Norton and with Malwarebytes anti Malware. This sounds like a virus/worm/nasty thing, because it seems you have ruled everything else out.

Thankyou for your responses. After commenting that I changed everything but the motherboard I realized I hadn't messed with the wifi card. I decided to look up the drivers so I can reinstall it and found on forums that the drivers that came in the cd where not working in 7. So I downloaded the newest driver from their website and viola its working flawlessly. Thankyou once again for everyone responses!
I cant belive that this whole time it was a wifi driver .
