hey guys, i have the following problem: while im using my computer ( iMac with windows 7 installed via bootcamp ) the computer seems to randomly freeze some times... i cant move mouse the audio completely bugs out and the only way to ulock it is to unplug the power, no allert, no blue screen, nothing. The problem is particulary annoying since it doesnt happen after a particular action or amount of time, its completely random, sometimes it happens 2 times in 5 minutes while using just firefox, sometimes it doesnt happen for an entire day while gaming... the problem shouldnt be the OS since i have had WIN7 installed on this for like 2 years before the problem started occurring. I regularely clean the junk files and i have all drivers updated. Unfortunately i cant open up the pc to clean it since, u know, apple nice company KAPPA (or if there is a way i would like to know it) but the problem doesnt seem to be heath aswell, the fans are not even going fullspeed when the computer blocks and the cpu and gpu usage seem average. Thx for your help. (i dont know if it can be related but 2 weeks ago the computer started bluescreening aswell every time i wake it up from the windows sleep option)

just because you went two years before experiencing an issue, i wouldnt rule it out outright..
try runing an sfc scan.
open cmd in admin, type: 

sfc /scannow

see if it fixes issues it detects (it should fix them automatically) 
if it finds some issues, type the following:
 

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt

and post the file here

Have you tried to perform a sudden temporary interrupt of the electricity flow to your computational device followed by a re-initialization procedure of the central processing unit and associated components?
