I have a problem with my computer locking up with the keyboard and mouse unresponsive and a horrible sound coming from the speakers (I think). This has happened 5 times since I upgraded to a SSD. The first two times it happened the computer was really hot. Fan Speed showed that it was in the...

I installed Windows 10 (upgrading a Windows 7 Toshiba Laptop) several weeks ago and everything seemed to be working fine. A few days ago I started to see that when I went to close down the laptop "Task Host stopping background tasks" If I cancelled the shutdown (thinking something was still...

Dear Windows Users, I've been recently having problems with my new Cyberpower PC. When I am doing a large download, the apps in the toolbar seem to not open. I click the icon and the window won't pull up. The problem can be fixed by a simple hard shutdown, but that means I have to restart my...

win7 pro 64-bit, windows security essentials, newest vdefs. windows updates current. drivers current. I get these weird random system shut downs (NOT a BSOD, more like a power failure), sometimes I'm watching a video, sometimes I'm not even on the computer at all. Sometimes it happen after 20...

My computer was running fine yesterday. I was copying my iTunes music library file into Drop Box to transfer to my new computer. I left this unattended to do something else. When I came back to check on it, all of my desktop icons were gone and so was the task bar. Control, Alt, Delete did not...

November 2015 update I had an automatic Vista security update downloaded 11/12/15 . My PC now shuts down every time during startup process, with error message re BlueScreen. I have tried ( in SAFE mode ) going to control panel to uninstall the recent updates, but get a message that uninstall...

I'm running a desktop with 7 Pro. Since last night's update, Outlook begins to load, gets to a certain point and stops. I open an email and Outlook shuts down. Advice?

First off I want to let you know that I do not know much about computers. Today I turned my laptop on and it booted just fine. I went to move the mouse to select the start menu and the mouse will not move. I tied hitting the Windows key on my keyboard and it didn't do anything. I've tied...

I am not great with computers, but I'm going to do my best to describe my issue and see if there might be a way to fix it. I did the automatic windows 10 upgrade a few weeks ago. Yesterday I installed a new CPU on my system nothing else changed. After the CPU install things went...

Greetings. I've got a PC with XP just formatted and clean, and happens that most of times I try to shutt it down or reboot, at the last second when it must get off, it appears a BSOD and auto reboots. That started to happen before the format. With Blue Screen Viewer I can see the error and it...

Okay, I recently replaced the power supply on my desktop machine. This was after, this last Sunday, I went to turn the machine on and the power button wouldn't do anything. It was dead as a Dalek. I replaced the power supply with a Thermaltake TR2 600W ATX PS, and the machine powered on fine...

I'm getting the following errors on start up and during shut down. How do I fix this problem? Is the Microsoft Office Home and Student 2010 update legit? My main concern is that it might be a virus trying to gain access to my computer. My Office 2010 is a copy I got from a friend so I fear if I...

Hello, I have found a very unique problem that no one else seems to have. Whenever Windows Update starts up, the update shield icon next to the shutdown button on the start menu suddenly appears, indicating that I have to shutdown to install updates, even when there are no updates to install...

Since upgrading to Win 10 I have noticed that when shutting down my PC one or two programs seem to be delaying the shutdown. The program descriptions don't seem to be in English, possibly Chinese or Japanese, and after a few seconds shutdown proceeds. I have investigated, but can find no reason...

Got the BSOD about an hour ago and it's been stuck on 86% progress since then. Should I keep waiting or is it safe to hold the power button to shut it down?

Normally I leave my PC on lock screen or put it to sleep using a key on my keyboard. On several occasions I have returned to my PC (after some hours) only to find that it has shut down for no apparent reason. On switching it back on the boot sequence runs OK with no error messages or reason for...

Once in a while, when the moon is high and the stars are aligned i guess Windows 10 full stop freezes with no reason nor any cause during shutdown. It also happens during normal operations once in a while. Its not a memory issue, I mean 12 gigs of ram memory should not be a problem. Its not my...

Recently did an upgrade to Windows 10. I had a couple of problems along the way, but nothing that I couldn't work around, and the end result was what should have been a fairly clean Windows install, settings but no applications retained. Then, I noticed that when I select shutdown, it will...
