I'm hoping anyone could shed some light as to what may be causing this.
Recently my computer just 'hangs' out of the blue. It happened yesterday and it happened just now. I had to manually push the reset button on the tower.
I go to Event Viewer and the only error I see that corresponds to the time my computer froze was this "The Andrea ADI Filters Service service hung on starting." Event ID: 7022.
I also don't know if it is my hard drive, but I doubt it since it's been over a year I bought this computer. No noise, no crackling sound. (A seagate, yay
)
I also did a memory test to check the RAM 2 months ago, so I can cancel that out too.
The only software I installed recently was Kaspersky AV trial, but even so, shouldn't that show up as software problem under Event Viewer?
For temperature readings, both system and CPU are well under 50*C.
I'm pretty sure I experienced this in the past year, but nothing that would make it hang almost every 24hours or so.
Any input would be great.
