Today, I will explain how to solve the System Interrupts issue, which many of you might be familiar with. I have experienced this problem on both of my desktops, and I would like to share how I resolved it.
Symptoms of System Interrupts Issue
Some common symptoms include:
- The computer freezes right after booting up.

In my case, the computer slows down right after booting, as startup programs load. Despite having good specs, it still runs slowly. Upon opening the Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + ESC
