Hello Everyone. I have been having random freezes recently (maybe about for a week). It first started when I was playing a game (league of legends on fullscreen to be specific) and in the middle of the game it suddenly froze. During the freeze I was unable to do anything besides restarting the computer by the power button. I have tried some methods that other users facing the same problem have tried, but to no avail. Methods tried: 1. Booting into safe mode to see if problem occurred (no freezes during safe mode) 2. Clean Boot (still experienced freezing, but might have not fully worked due to the laptop freezing and unfreezing) 3. Checked for windows updates as well as installed them (drivers) 4. Updated the Bios (doesn't seem to fix the problem). Note: I did a system check and apparently the Hard disk/drive short dst test failed. Would that be a reason why my laptop might be freezing random when doing anything after the log in.
