Help! My PC keeps freezing

[Recon801]

Any help or input you have is appreciated, I no longer no what to try.

 

So, when I turn my computer on it boots into Windows 10 just fine, then roughly 50% of the time it will freeze within 5 minutes of the boot. I will have to force shutdown and when it boots back up it will be totally fine. Can play games for hours and hours no issues. Then I'll shutdown for the night and when I turn it on the next day the same issue will occur. Boot, freeze, force shutdown, boot fine.

 

If the freezing occurs it will always do it within 5minutes of booting windows and will do it regardless of what the pc is doing. Whether I'm playing a game, watching youtube, or just sitting at desktop.

 

What I've tried so far.

Different ram speeds, tried 2666, 2400, and 2133 (It feels like it happens less frequently at 2133, but definitely still happens)

 

Heard Avast can causes freezes while using steam. So I tried exceptions, disabling Avast, and finally I uninstalled nothing changed.

 

Riva Tuner in MSI Afterburner is known to cause freezing so I disabled that, still no change.

 

I tried different OC on my cpu and gpu, even though it shouldn't be the OC since I can run stable maxed

 

Since the issue occurs on Boot I disabled Windows 10 fast boot and hibernation no change.

 

I used to have a 750watt psu and a MSI 970 and the same issue was present so I don't think it's a power issue.

 

My Rig:

Intel 5820K OC to (4.5ghz at 1.275v)

Corsair H110i (280mm)

MSI x99a sli plus MOBO

16gb DDr4 G Skill 3000mhz in quad channel (currently running at 2133)

2way SLI EVGA 980ti Classified

500gb 850 EVO SSD

2TB WD Red HDD x2

Corsair 1200watt psu

OS=Windows 10 with Anniversary Update

 

Should note that my bios and all drivers are up to date.

 

I have been getting a failed to install Windows 10 update issue lately as well but unsure if that's related.

Boot into safe mode and see if it still freezes, could be viruses

warm it up if its freezing

your OS probably did not install successfully, since you keep getting fail to instal windows update.

Another is pretty much a virus, do what @Slottr suggested by checking the event log and see what the error is. If it is a virus, which I kinda doubt in certain regards, use TRONSCRIPT.
