 Ok , I recently replaced my veloceraptor with an ssd and installed windows 8.1 ( was Linux /Win 7 ) .

Did all the normal things , drivers , bios , etc .

Now if I try to use the front USBs it freezes . If I leave the comp to go answer the door or get coffee it freezes after about 10 minutes .

 

I tried to find an answer and it seems to be a semi-common problem but , there are too many conflicting sudo solutions posted out there .

 

Can anybody help please ?

 

This comp has -

asrock 990fx killer x

fx 8350 black

crucial 1tb ssd

wd black 1tb x 2

gskill ripjaws x 4X4gb

evga geforce gtx 750ti ftw

NOW I'VE LOST IT I KNOW I CAN KILL . TRUTH IS HIDDEN BEYOND THE GATES  IT'S ALL DARKER THAN BLACK .
