| | Computer Freezes After 5 Minutes But Is OK After Reboot! Just recently my desktop PC freezes about 5 minutes after starting. The ctrl alt del keys dont work and the only way to restart it is by using the reset button or the mains switch. After doing this the PC then runs normally for as long as it is in use. I am running Windows XP and use Kaspersky Internet Security version 8. This PC is only 4 months old and did not have this problem when first purchased. I have also noticed recently that it is taking a long time to open fairly small Word and Excel files, up to 30 seconds in some cases. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
