Do you guys typically do the windows updates before you install your drivers, or after, and does it matter that much? been wondering because I got a new CPU liquid cooler, did a fresh install of windows 7 ultimate(legit paid copy), and I am experiencing major freezes for a few seconds every 3 seconds or so. Audio still plays as if the system is normal, but the screen locks up and sometimes I can move my mouse and click things, but it does nothing for at least a solid minute, then it finally pops up, same goes for trying to pull up the task manager or pressing ctrl alt del.


I've tried checking all my hardware with stress tests, and they are coming out nominal and just fine, so it's making me think it's a software issue.

Any help from people who aren't retarded would be appreciated.

Freezing is either a software issue or not enough RAM (memory)

Can’t be a problem with CPU else it wouldn’t boot.



Good luck on your CCNA, something like 98% of people that take the exam fail.

I have the book, but I haven't gained the confidence that I'll do well enough to get my CCNA.

I figured it was a driver issue. I have 16 gb ram and came up 100% on the stress test.

I'll do some more digging.

I read online that it might be a power issue as well.

Are you saying that freezes can't happen due to a CPU if the PC boots? Lmao okay.

tl;dr: It's normal to happen on Windows because it always happens to me. You need to do clean reinstalls often.


Thing about windows 7 is that you have to reinstall it every few months or so, do a clean reinstall, because that's just how the older Windows are. There are many reasons for the startup being clogged eventually, because when you install software it will be added as a startup background service without your consent, disk fragmentation, Windows updates silently installed without your consent, shitware, etc

That's why you always gotta do a clean reinstall, and restart your OS often to see if anything is messing it up gradually. If you leave your device on for a long time then when you restart one day you'll find that your device is now retarded

Welcome to Windows

Ended up just getting a copy of windows 10, and all my problems went away. definitely had to do with my copy of windows, which was a retailer copy that came with a purchase over 6 years ago or something, which had worked many times before flawlessly when reinstalled. the CD may have corrupted or something.


Gotta say, it's not as bad as i initially thought, only downside is more spying, which is inevitable, windows 7 had some of the same software installed in windows updates and what not anyways.

See, I turned out to be right, after all, the problem was with the OS, and OP upgraded it

Point is this is not the forum where you try to prove you have the bigger penis, at least not anymore

1. you did not once say to upgrade the windows version
2. kyle already did a fresh install, he stated so in the OP

you stated
"Thing about windows 7 is that you have to reinstall it every few months or so,"
which kyle already did. this means you were wrong, as the fresh install caused the problem, not fixed it.

you were 100% wrong, spouted bullshit - probably a bunch of stuff you don't even understand how it works, and you don't actually know that the problem was the OS, it still could have been a driver issue, and as the drivers are different for different windows versions, that could have been the reason.

and no, drivers != os.

typical computer nerd thinks theyre smart when they cant form a simple argument. no matter the subject, if you cant directly back up a claim you are wrong. i dont even need to attack your obviously lack of knowledge in the subject to show how dumb you are
