Occasionally, after some hours, my computer stops working properly. I can still move the mouse, but any click takes at least ten seconds. I’ve also seen certain characters on my taskbar become distorted, like the number inside the blue notification icon in the lower right corner. Someone might know what’s causing this issue? A restart helps, but it’s likely to happen again soon. This is the third time it’s occurred, and the first time was a few weeks ago.

Hello. Are there any blue screens? If so, what command? Have you checked if you ran a S.M.A.R.T test using CrystalDiskInfo? Did you use Memtest for your RAM?

No blue screens, all drives appear healthy based on CrystalDisk. I just completed a memory test recently and saw no issues—maybe I should retry it?
