My pc (win7 x64) randomly freezes (nothing responds only solution is a hard reboot) usually once a day sometimes it goes for 5 days with no freeze.

Steps I've taken so far:

  • Updated all drivers from their official websites
  • Memtested RAM
  • Monitored temperatures/fan speed to see if theres any correlation to the freeze (all within norm)
  • Re-slotted components in case of bad contacts
  • Looked trough event viewer for potential causes
  • Tried to look for patterns in what I do before the freeze occurs so far seems pretty random
  • There is no minidump file as the pc doesn't BSOD

What are possible causes for full freeze (caps lock led doesn't work for example)?
Am I correct in assuming a bad driver would cause a BSOD instead?

I suspect a faulty piece of hardware likely motherboard/psu but I have no idea how to find out for sure.

Any ideas?
