Hello! I've been having a lot of trouble with my PC over the last couple days, with hang-ups and Firefox crashing. Firefox opens to my last window, but immediately freezes and eventually crashes. I can launch games, but they eventually start to stutter every couple seconds.
I think it started when I launched a new game I had downloaded. It loaded for a long time, then froze my discord call and Firefox. Sometime after that, I also noticed a svchost program using 150% of my GPU, so I closed the process.
Restarting didn't help, and neither did updating windows. I eventually deleted the game I had installed, but that didn't do anything either.
Any ideas on what the problem could be? I'd rather not have to reset my whole system, but I can if necessary. Please let me know if you need any more information, and thanks!
