1418101 2016-03-25 01:07:00 No I don't have CCleaner installed and what do you want me to uninstall? karbren (14078)
1418102 2016-03-25 01:11:00 I got it restarted and tried windows update and am trying 2 out of 4 updates. It has only started to freeze more when I can't update the last few ones. Could it be the updates that cause the instability? karbren (14078)
1418103 2016-03-25 01:12:00 I didnt say to uninstall anything. If ccleaner was installed it has an uninstall option. Boot into safe mode / networking then download/install it (www.piriform.com). Then do the above

Do a custom install so you dont install the junk

1418104 2016-03-25 01:15:00 so are you saying that in safe mode I can download and install windows update without anything else? karbren (14078)
1418105 2016-03-25 01:19:00 Well if it doesnt freeze in safe mode / networking (you have to select networking to get online). Then there maybe something in startup / installed thats making it freeze

I didnt say anything about WU in safe mode. But get ccleaner and install it then do the above / so we can see whats installed and whats in startup

1418106 2016-03-25 01:57:00 Ok I managed to get it to start in safe mode networking. On the start up menu there is only 3 items. Ccleaner, NV Backend and ShadowPlay karbren (14078)
1418107 2016-03-25 02:03:00 Copy and paste whats installed. Is it freezing in safe mode tho?? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1418108 2016-03-25 02:04:00 I couldn't tell as by the time I snet you a message on my good computer it restarted back in normal mode karbren (14078)
1418109 2016-03-25 02:09:00 You should keep it in safe mode for a while then if it doesnt freeze then it could be software related. Something maybe running in the background Speedy Gonzales (78)
1418110 2016-03-25 02:14:00 I have found an update that had caused problems in stopping other updates being installed but it isn't on my computer. But I used the stand alone updater on another one that fixes alot of issues but it won't install either. karbren (14078)
