should do. I've had win 10 64 bit for a couple years, no such problem.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The OS is not likely the problem. Most likely culprits are 1. viruses/spyware. 2. Too many programs running in background. 3. Needed updates. 4. Old/tired/dirty hardware. Roughly in that order. Try addressing those issues first.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Probably not. Your problem sounds more like hardware rather than software.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Upgrading to windows 10 may help if you do a clean install. Doing a clean install of Windows 8.1 would also help. PC freezing up may be caused by a hardware issue , programs not working properly or malware. A clean install of 8.1 would verify if it's a hardware issue, then install required programs and see if the problem occurs again. Main reason to upgrade to 10 is it's the current version and will be supported for a longer time. Verify your PC can be upgraded to Windows 10, some hardware is no longer compatible with the latest version of 10.
