My Gaming PC freezes after waking up from sleep mode
Hello. Just like the title says, I am having freezing issues with a $1700 PC. It’s actually unbelievable. I didn’t pour all my money into a system just to have it not work properly. There is no logical reason it should be freezing. I have enough RAM, amazing CPU & GPU, 750 W PSU, ect. It only happens when I wake my PC from sleep mode as well. After that I force it off by holding the power button, and then it takes 2-3 more hard resets to get it working… Someone please help!
There are several reasons of Computer Freezing. Let’s check out some:
Multiple Applications Running Simultaneously: Every application takes some internal and hardware resources to keep it running. If multiple applications are operating at the same time, then PC may run low on resources as memory is used by numerous applications.
OS Issues: It is always advisable to run a legal copy of a Windows OS, and one has to make sure that all the drivers should be updated on time.
Heating Up Issues: The system may freeze if the temperature of the system processor is higher than the normal. The Higher temperature of the system can be easily diagnosed by abnormal noise on startup and high squealing.
Misconfiguration of a Hardware: This happens when a recent hardware is added with a misconfiguration. Or, the hardware is incompatible with your system. For this, you have to remove the recently added hardware and check that whether the system is working properly or not.
BIOS Settings Issue: Sometimes, making changes in the BIOS setting will let the system to go into a Freezing mode. If the Freezing problem is caused by the BIOS Settings, then make the settings of the BIOS to Default Settings. This can be easily done by removing the CMOS battery out of your system and then after few minutes put it back to its place.
There are several other issues which cause the Computer Freezing such as Power Issues, Driver Issues, etc. One has to diagnose it first and then take an appropriate step to resolve it.

This sure is a lot of downloading. I think I have fixed it tbh. I noticed that my MB PSU cable was a little bit out of the PSU so I pushed it in further, and so far every time I have woken it up, it didn’t freeze. Though, if you think I still need to do the steps mentioned above, I will. (I have some old programs on here that can’t be updated and need to not be messed with or it could cause them to not work properly. Namely, one being Call of Duty: World at War Mod Tools.)

Patch MY PC will not update any of your games, only programs like java and flash player. I am only helping you to reduce the load on your machine. The programs you are downloading will only run when you use them. They will not cause your machine any stress.. You should indeed complete the steps, and your machine should respond a lot better after.
