Windows 8 keeps freezing for minutes at a time.
I would be playing league, or just browsing the internet and it would freeze. During the freezes I can't do anything. Ctrl+ALt+Del does nothing and the only way to fix the freeze is to restart the computer. I finally got tired of it happening many times a day so i reset the computer. Now it is using windows 8 not 8.1. But also in addition to freezing, every time I open an application such as internet explorer or control panel the application goes into not responding and then freezes the computer. I have also tried to install the windows 8 updates to windows 8.1 but it says failed to configure updates reverting changes and then restarts the computer.
