It seems to occur at random and there is no warning for when it happensPlease tell me the size of the hard drive and how much free space you have. Please try this: Open Windows Task Manager and check which process is spiking.I suggest that you check your video card if it is working properly.Quote from: trym392 on January 04, 2015, 12:24:21 PM<blockquote>I have a problem where, whilst i watch a video, my computer locks down completely and won't let me do anything at all.
