    Screen freeze while using certain abilities - WoW

    need some help from dear community. I have WoW installed on my iMac in the bootcamp mode, i.e. in the Windows 7. WoW has been running flawlessly till lately. I run WoW at Ultra my configuration can be found below. The problem I have been having is when I use deterrence on my hunter the screen freezes and then resumes in 5 seconds or so. Same thing happens when I use nitro boost (increased run speed) on my belt and glider thingy (parachute on cloak). I am an engineer.

    This rare/strange phenomenon only occurs while I am in combat. When I am freely wandering in the world doing quests or fighting Azorethians I can use the abilities and tinkers just fine. Issues only happening in raids. A while ago this kind of happened when someone or me used stampede ability (hunter ability).

    With my problem posted; I ask the community for help and feedback in eradicating this issue so I can use those great abilities in raid. I don't care much for other issues, but not being able to use deterrence is a big drawback while raiding.

    Sounds more addon/WTF folder related then PC related if im honest, delete WTF/CACHE/INTERFACE, boot wow up cleanly and see if it still occurs. I know its the standard responce but it seems weird for it to be the PC.

    Be sure to backup your WTF and Interface folders though so you don't lose your addons as well as the settings for them.
