Pc Freezes after applying paste.

[NouGKou]

Hello. I recently reapplied paste on my cpu. After applying it is now freezing every once in a while. No weird temps or anything. Any ideas?

Did you remove the cpu from the socket by any chance? Did you check everything was put back together the right way and is connected, like the cpu fan?

Looks like your thermal paste went into your CPU socket, but also consider re-installing your graphic drivers after a clean uninstall using DDU, maybe the issue existed even before the paste change, but you might not have noticed it.

Is your cooler tightened up enough?  Could be mounting pressure related.
