PC keeps freezing and making a weird noise every 30 minutes
My PC will freeze for 5 seconds or so around every 30 minutes. When the freeze happens, a weird gear-like noise comes from the actual PC. It almost sounds like a part is restarting, my speculation is one of the fans. I've had this issue in the past and i fixed it somehow but i cant remember what I do or if I actually fixed or it fixed its self. All I know is this issue stopped for a long time but came back recently after I factory reset the PC.
Does anyone else have this issue or know of a possible fix? Could it just be as easy as cleaning the PC?
