I had a lost discussion about a certain EventID that was documented for NT 4.0 yet applied to XP and the client was adamant because MSFT didn't doc it, it didn't apply.
Anyhow there's not much about the PC, drivers, apps and such so the other clue is the freeze on scanning. Does safe mode lock up (try with networking.)
My pc has started freezing to the point where it's almost unusable. Its a really nice pc thats been having no problems with performance other than this issue. Its the type of freeze where the caps lock light wont even come on which i read means that you have to actually shut down the computer (by holding down power button for 5 seconds) to get out of.
I run windows 10 and when i go to event viewer, the only thing i find is error event 10 under application logs, which is strange because any research i do says that the event 10 error is only for w7 and windows server 2008 r2.
Also, I had a problem with memory that was causing crashes a while back which i got fixed. I ran a memtest just to be safe and nothing came up. I did system file checker and it too was clean. It's also frozen during the initial boot with the windows logo so i was assuming that meant it was a problem with windows and not a program i have downloaded. I dont think its a virus either since quick scans dont bring anything up. Id like to do a full scan but the computer always freezes about half way through lol
