Random Hanging

[TheSuspect]

I've noticed that twice today, and in both incidents I wasn't doing anything intense, my system froze up.  Sort of. Javascripts in chrome would cease to respond, freezing sites, stopping videos, and preventing me from searching anything. File explorer seemed to freeze as well since I couldn't open files in media player, Premiere wouldn't allow me to save my project, even though it's on a different drive, and ctrl + alt + delete wouldn't work. I had no way to access task manager to see what was going on, and messages via chrome in discord wouldn't send, and messages wouldn't update either.

 

I'm completely sure temperatures aren't an issue. Drivers haven't been updated in the last month or so. This randomly started today, the first time I was near idling, the second time I had just finished rendering something. Is my ssd stuffed? Or is there something wrong with my drivers? Or is this just a coincidence.

 

Using Windows 10 Home, latest update.

Geforce Experience latest driver update as well, though not sure that will help.

I would say it's likely the SSD, although those other things could be causing it to hang too. Back up your data.
