Download more RAM they say...  biggrin.gif

On a serious note, 4GB is barely enough but I never have freezing issue with Windows 10 ever (or windows 7 or 8 for that matter).

My guess probably you hard disk is about to fail ?

Clean reinstall can halp but make sure all the bios are updated (if your laptop is old).

Does it really help?

I'm using 8GB ram and I think it is more than enough to keep the application running.

Oh damn....don't tell me it's time. Can torrent cause the hard disk fail? Mine as well just change the HDD now, better than never haha

Mine is just 1 year Dell tho...is that consider old already?

Depends on how you 'abuse' the hard disk.  biggrin.gif

I year is pretty new (mine's more than 3 years already) however freezing issues are most likely driver issues or hard disk issue, not OS. Could be the applications issue too. Anyway, Windows 10 simply hates pirates and it seems able to detect them whenever they are inside our hard disks.  biggrin.gif
*
Then maybe I should call dell support to find out if there's any driver issues.

However, if you're talk about pirate software issue, might be caused by MS 2016 that I downloaded last week from torrent...I know we do not encourage piracy here...sorry for that! haha

by the way, I'm scanning my HDD using dell support provided tools. Will post it here upon the completion. thumbup.gif

LOL. Using pirated mictosoft product on windows 10 is strictly no-no... For your own pc health sake.

Anyone has upgraded to Windows 10 TH2 (November Update  build 10586)?

It is a long pain in the ass process to go through the upgrade. But it seems faster than the first build though.

Could be. I remembered that I've read somewhere where it mentioned that Windows 10 can make pirated software simply stops working. People complained that it's intrusive though.

I think it causing window to update the latest updates too. keep crashing showing fail to update the updates. Ordered the ori version of MS 2016 and pick up tonight.

will have to install tomorrow after chante HDD. doh.gif

HGST actually is from Hitachi but WD bought it. current my 500 GB Seagate Momentus (7200) & ext 160 GB Seagate Momentus (5400) never fail me & i'm still using 160 GB green WD no issue.

what i mean is that m'sia market mostly either WD or Seagate. laptop that come with toshiba HDD most likely got issue & if np then u're consider damn lucky.

frankly speaking, don't trust review too much. my exp toshiba & buffalo HDD are crap.
