Not responding followed by PC freeze/crash when opening sessions

Hi,



So i've been using PT10 for a few years now and since i built a new PC i started having this issue. Basically at random times when i try opening a session i get a "Pro tools has stopped working" message and as i try to close it, a few seconds later the whole system freezes and i have to reboot it. I can't seem to identify any pattern on which sessions or what circumstances it happens, it seems to happen randomly. Sometimes i can work for hours straight without an issue or other times i get 3 crashes in a row trying to open sessions until i finally succeed, and it doesn't seem to be tied to any specific sessions. I'm honestly at a loss and would appreciate any help on this. Below i'll specify as much information i can and the requested Sandra report:





Pro Tools version 10.3.10

Hardware: Mbox Mini - Package 1.1.8.

- Firmware 0.7.0.
