Problem Details: Either asus computers overall or windows 10 constantly freeze whenever i run osu on them causing me to have to force a restart on the computer. Is this a known issue or is there a way to prevent osu from freezing on me its very annoying?

Video or screenshot showing the problem:

osu! version: 20170103.2 (latest)

Try running the game in compatibility mode
Method 1: Launch Repair Dialog

Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard.
While holding Shift, double click the osu! icon on your desktop.
Continue holding Shift until you see the recovery dialog prompt.
From there, under Renderer, check "Compatibility mode"

Method 2: Shortcut

If you have the "repair osu!" Shortcut, opening that also works.

Method 3: Config Shortcut

If you don't have the "repair osu!" Shortcut, you can create one instead.

Right click osu!.exe > Create a shortcut
Open properties of the shortcut
1. Select then Alt + Enter or
2. Right click > Properties
Set Target to ...\osu!.exe -config
Press OK then open the shortcut

Method 4: Text document

You can also force the updater to run by creating a new text document in your osu! folder called "help". Right-click in an empty space in your osu! folder, and choose New > Text Document.

Name it help and then run osu! to start the updater in forced maintenance mode.

Hold Shift when opening the client until a recovery dialog comes up. Click on Repair osu!
Also, please rename the thread's title to something a bit more appropriate
