Hi,
I started getting weird problems with my PC lately:
1. I start the PC, nothing gets displayed at the screen but I can hear Windows loading fine. After 20-30 seconds I can even shut down the PC through my keyboard (Windows key + right arrow + Enter) even though there is still nothing displayed on the screen. If I start the PC again everything runs normal and I get image on my screen. That happens 3-4 times a week.
2. Second problem is more frustrating- I am in Windows, minding my own business and the computer just freezes. It's strange because I sometimes watch movies and can still hear the audio fine. Sometimes it continues work after 20-30 seconds of freeze, sometimes I freezes completely and I have to turn it off from the button.
I replaced the memory with another one- no change.
I swapped my graphics card with another one- no change.
I re-installed my Windows 7 Ultimate (clean install), changed 3 different Nvidia drivers (2 of their latest and one older)- no change.
I have my suspicion that the culprit is my Samsung 830 SSD and will look now for some software tools to test it, but that doesn't really explain my first problem.
PC configuration- Intel 3930k (not clocked), GTX 460, Corsair 4GB RAM, Samsung 830 SSD, Corsair 850W PSU.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
