    Do you mean that the DVD drive tray opened when the computer was turned off or when the computer had locked up/froze and therefore power still going through the MB.

    Based on the following from your reply #3 to which you added by way of an edit the answer would be no.

    No drivers are loaded when you are still in the BIOS and the computer freezing while in the BIOS suggests a hardware issue to which one or more items of hardware and a flaky PSU are possible causes.

    Would strongly suggest that you try the suggestion made by Evan in his reply #5;

    Please note that when using the integrated graphics solution you must both physically remove the add on video card from the MB and uninstall the drivers for the card using DDU graphics device driver removal tool which you can download for free from here

    From Speccy;

    Computer type: Desktop
    [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Installation Date: 2018-04-19 19:33:43
    Windows Security Center
    User Account Control (UAC): Enabled
    Notify level: 0 - Never Notify
    Firewall: Enabled
    Windows Update
    AutoUpdate: Download Automatically and Install at Set Scheduled time
    Schedule Frequency: Every Day
    Schedule Time
    Windows Defender
    Windows Defender: Enabled
    [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Antivirus
    Antivirus: Disabled
    Display Name: Windows Defender
    Virus Signature Database: Up to date

    There are no Windows updates installed and you have no AV protection.

    Power Profile
    Active power scheme: [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]High performance

    Once you have removed the add on video card and its drivers you should do the following asap;

    Change the Windows Power Plan to Balanced, High Performance is a form of overclocking that causes instability and overheating which in turn causes instability.

    If not done already, install the drivers for the MB.

    Make sure that Windows Defender is enabled, allow Defender to check for updates/do a full scan of the computer.

    Fully update Windows.

    Post back with an update once all of the above has been done.

    The most accurate temperature and voltage readings can only be obtained in the BIOS which is not very helpful as the computer is not under any load, third party monitoring software cannot be relied upon as there are too many variables, they are not 100% accurate and do not detect or report readings for all hardware.

    the system doesnt let me update further because it says that my procesor is too old for the updates to work

    i mean when the PC freezes i can press the dvd button and it opens, so i guess the system reacts to this

    i dont browse any shade websites i dont need an antivirus all my downloads are from official websites not to mention that i did clean instals and the only thing i installed where games from their websites

    right now i uninstalled realtek hd drivers and google chrome just to be sure its not because of the browser

    gpu drivers where reinstalled recently[/color][/color][/color]

      Odd as if that were the case you would not have been able to install Windows in the first place.

      Is your copy of Windows legitimate.

      Speccy link here for an eleven year old Sony Vaio notebook that I have. nowhere near as good or as new as your computer but runs Windows 10 Pro and is fully up to date.

            the pc keeps freezing from time to time now even tho i changed the sockets to wich i plug in my pc, i kept reading and maybe its becaue of the USB ports because when a freeze occurs the lights on the mouse and keyboard turn off
            also i’ve read that it might be because of my hdmi cable (wich is connected to the monitors dvi-d port via a hdmi-dvid adapter)
            edit: i was trying to install windows 10 again from a usb wich i plugged in from the back and the PC froze durning instalation, now im using the front ports going smoother

              Are things still going ok using the front USB ports.

              Were you using the USB 3.1 ports on the back of the chassis or did you also try the USB 2.0 ports and still get the same problem.

              Windows log looks good so not sure why it would not allow you to update the previous Windows 8.1 installation.

              Would strongly suggest that you try and get Windows 10 and Defender fully up to date to help keep your machine protected, the Windows updates also have patches to fix glitches in Windows that if not corrected will cause you stability issues.

                so i installed windows 10 again, and it still keeps on freezing even when i reset the BIOS (to the point where i even had to set the date again) and after updating the bios to its latest update
                i also went and tried to test a dvi-d cable (because i was using hdmi now) and it still froze
                even when i tried 3 power sockets in the house it froze in all of them
                and yea i pluged in my devices to the front USB ports and the 2.0 and 3.0 in the back same thing happening

                really must be something wrong with the motherboard or power supply then

                              I had the same issue with Dell once. Every time the system had it hick up’d I would call since if they do not have any record of it happening would have to start over with them doing the same checks and test I have already completed. I kept a list of ticket number and people I had talked too. They finally sent me a new system and have not had any issues since.

                                alright just as thought pc keeps hanging again after the gpu change

                                i got the pc back with a win10 home unactivated installed and started to disable things like windows update, background inteligent transfer, windows defender, superfatch
                                and it keeps hanging so i try to perform a factory reset to get everything back to normal and the pc hangs durning the black screen spinning circle phase and i have to hard reset

                                what does that mean now?
