It's "refreshing my PC" right now, if it still freezes we'll do that, I'm pretty sure it updated all of that when we put in the motherboard disc, it updated like everything and it was still freezing.

The only time I had freezing on my pc was when I moved over a few programs I made from my old laptop and they didnt seem to be properly closing.  Imagine my surprise when I used task manager and I had 109 instances of my port listener and interpreter.  *facepalm*

If you can replaceyour hard drive on your own, you could try using a different one o.o  Also ramtests like memtest86 would go a long way.

The SSD and Hard Drive are all brand new, every piece in the computer is brand new and never has been used. Not sure what's going on..

Yeah try it without the SSD.  If that is the problem it needs firmware most likely.

i've got the freezing experience long ago when i built my pentium 4 rig.

my problem was: PC boost normaly but freezing or blue screen around 5-10 min , sometime it last for 30min to 1h and then the freezing repeat.

if you have same problem as me , then this is my advice: It's the Hardware. one of your hardware parts might be defective or not probperly insert/pluged or doesnt match the mother board. mother board and CPU usualy not defective, problem might be from the Ram or Video card.

if you just bought the parts, return it and get another one and try. i'm sure sofware is not the problem since it's a fresh install, but you can alway try to reinstall the window too .

We unplugged the SSD, it was still reading we had Windows 8 on it even with the SSD unplugged.

Mine just freezes whenever we try and do anything, type a password in to log in to the computer, open a browers, updates, anything.

that time i got froze by just moving mouse.

my advice in this matter is that you should shutdown your PC and rechecking all the plugs/connection , make sure they are properly inserted and then retry. also try to reinstall windows 8, if its a new PC , i'm sure it take just 30 min for a fresh reinstall windows

but freezing problem for a new built PC are usualy from hardware parts

yeah something could be loose, I check all connections again. But he/they already tried reinstalling. now about the SSD, is it removed? are you still freezing? can you get into command prompt? 

can you try to type this into CMD: bcdedit /set disabledynamictick

Hey guys, got my new PC built, we installed Windows 8, all the motherboard drivers, and it's still constantly freezing every 5 or so second, it says programs aren't responding, all the fans are working, lights are on, what do I do?

Kind of hard to diagnose with such limited information.

Custom built or store bought?

Specs?

Type of components?

OC'ed?

ATI/Nvidia?

How long has this happened? Ran fine before windows 8? Or never?

Over heating? Got enough fans or coolant sysytem?

Could be a vidcard issue, bad memory, memory in wrong slots, wrong wattage, wired not hooked up correctly.

Hey man, thanks for the post. Turns out it was my SSD. I'm just not sure what to do with it now..

Update firmware on SSD, or update motherboard BIOS.  Since you're on a PC, look up your model of motherboard and SSD, see which to do :)

Should I install the SSD firmware on my 1tb hard drive?
