Question

Computer freeze if not put to sleep and woken??

Nov 27, 2015 2:34PM PST

If I start up or restart my computer it will boot up correctly but after 5 mins or so of being on, it will freeze. No "blue screen", but it loops whatever audio is playing in such a way that it makes a buzzing noise.

However, if I put my computer to sleep before this error occurs, and then wake it up... it doesn't happen.

Any help would be appreciated.
