In the last two weeks, I’ve experienced a weird issue that occurs when I open new applications or just when I alt-tab. For example, when I’m playing Fortnite, I open Spotify, but when that happens, my PC freezes for a couple of seconds and then goes back to normal. It’s not just Fortnite that this would happen in, in other games the same thing would occur. In some worse instances, it freezes completely, causing me to force shut off my PC. Are there any solutions to this?
