Hi, I have been experiencing problems with my computer lately that makes it hard to use. Whenever I'm using my computer, it will just randomly freeze up. Doing some things make it freeze up faster such as watching videos or playing games. When watching videos on youtube or using a program on my computer such as media player, the computer will freeze anytime from 10 sec to a minute. It seems that no matter what im doing, then the computer will eventually freeze up. Most of the time, the program running will freeze and I cannot use ctrl-alt-delete to end it, but the task bar will still appear to work usually until I click something on it. Most of the time my computer will just freeze up completely and will be silent but sometimes a long continuous beep will come from inside of the machine. Either way, I am forced to hold down the power button until it shuts off and then I will just restart it. This has never happend before and I dont know what to do. PLEASE HELP!!


Thanks!
