Lately, while browsing, the computer start to freeze in this way:
First the browser (any browser) gets stuck loading pages but it is responsive (I can change tabs, scroll, select text etc)
The taskbar stops working at all and the mouse cursor changes to spinning circle when I hover on it.
The desktop screen seems to work at first, but it freezes too with the spinning circle if I open anything or right click.
CTRL ALT DEL, ALT TAB and start screen shortcuts won't work.
I have to reset because I can't reach shutdown or reboot options. Then the computer returns to normal.
Checked hard disk, and sfc /scannow without any errors. No errors in Event viewer.
Any help will be appreciated.
