Input freeze exactly every 10 minutes for about 1-2 seconds
A couple of months ago this problem started on my (Windows 10 Version 20H2) computer, and it's been very consistent since it started. Exactly every 10 minutes, the inputs I put into my computer freeze. For example, If I am playing any video game and I am trying to move forward when the freeze starts, I will continue to move forward until the freeze stops even if I try to do something else, and any mouse input happens all at once at the end of the freeze.
It doesn't matter what I'm doing on the computer at the time, whether it's playing a video game or just browsing the internet, or just sitting on the desktop.
I'm a little worried because I think the freezes started sometime after I cleaned my computer with a computer duster and cleaned out my CPU's heatsink, so I could have a loose connector, but I don't want to just go into my computer's guts and unplug/plug in everything in case I screw something up more unless I know it'll work. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
