I wasn't sure where to put this... but I am have a few problems. They might be related, but they might not be... I'm not sure...

My biggest problem is that my Computer Randomly Freezes at random times... sometimes I'll have it on and be watching a video on Youtube or playing a game, and the whole system will just freeze. and sometimes I will leave it on to Download or do a scan and I'll come back and it will be frozen and the computer's fan will be going on overdrive making it sound like it is using all the computer's capacity just to deal with some task.

Another problem that I am having is when I have the internet open... either IE or Firefox, the same thing happens... When watching Videos on Youtube or any other video site the video always glitches, like... there will be a slight pause and then it will resume.. even when the video is fully buffered.
Sometimes the sound will continue but the video will lag and other times the whole thing just lags. multiple times.. Also when browsing the internet there are Lag moments where I'll be scrolling the page and nothing will happen for a moment. then it will all flood down... or I'll be typing (As I am now) and the letters will stop appearing then go flying across the screen.. like Time is stopping and then suddenly catching back up to itself.

If someone could help me with these Problems I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ at 2.00 GHz
2.00 GB of RAM
and I have an NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT Video Card.

Have you installed any thing lately as this problem just started

[Riddlemind]

It actually started about 3 months ago... and since then I have installed a few things.. but mostly games and Ad-Aware...

Could you uninstall firefox and upgrade to IE8 just until we try and sort this problem out First thing do a full in-depth scan with Malwarebytes then SUPER anti spyware free downloads just google them this should take well over a couple of hours but it is worth it to eliminate any nasties if they find anything back up your registery if prompted then tell it to clean .

[lisa6447]

also go to services and disable ad-ware for now might conflict you you can enable these things afterwards

[Riddlemind]

Well... So far so good... No Lag while Browsing and videos run smooth... and it hasn't crashed yet... now just need to get around using this awful Internet Explorer...

A good programe for watching video' is VLC player google it also there are a few free anti-virus programes on the net try each one then uninstall if problems starts up again check which is compatable with windows then if you think your computer is runnjng smoothly please mark as solved Thank you regards Lisa
