Hey everyone, im having a problem with my PC, i have never encounter anything like this before, therefore i'd have no knowledge of how to repair it, first of all i was downloading with Utorrent overnight and Suddenly the entire PC Locked, the mouse and keyboard was inactive, then after i restarted my PC it was fixed, then i continued my downloads, i checked it, once again it was like that.
After that i restarted and it worked fine, so then i decided to listen to music and switch off Utorrent..

This is how the music started to sound, even my Games and Videos.
I can asure you that all the PC's resources is under no stress, and it is working smoothly these are the only problems.

i can also assure you that their is no viruses on my PC, because i have scanned it with both my Anti Malmware software and Anti Virus software and i do scan every night.
 
From the given info I can till you little beyond the fact that you are listening to Disturbed - Warrior. Perhaps try posting the summary from this so that we have *something* to work with.

Without that I'll have to go with what the runes tell me. They say you should look in your system logs for HDD timeouts & errors.

ok thanks mate, will do
 
You can start troubleshooting by doing a chkdsk - in a cmd box type chkdsk c: /f /r and restart the PC. Just remember it may take a very long time on VISTA or Windows 7 or even XP, two hours or more.

Also do a memory diagnostic - preferably overnight - built into Windows VISTA or Windows 7 when pressing F8 on startup and going to advanced menu.

Check for heat and if you are up to it reseat the RAM chips, only if the memory test fail.

Also a good idea to clean the PC inside - you will be amazed to see how much dust can accumulate in a PC, dust can also make intermittent problems or dust on the RAM contacts may do funny things...

Hope it helps.
 
Hey man i also experienced the same problem the past couple of days. I use my pc for a hour or so and bam suddenly it locks down and the keyboard and mouse is inactive and i have to restart. It happened again today, so i restarted my pc and i got the blue screen. So my first thought was take out the ram and see what is the problem. Took it out waited a couple of minutes and inserted again, switched on, pc booted fine. Still working, but i'm worried because i'm not sure what i causing the problem. It can't be heat and dust because the pc is only 3 week old, cpu and gpu is running at decent temps. My specs are the following: i7 950, radeon 6870, 6gb g skill ram tripple channel, 1tb samsung hd, 750w corsair hx psu
 
You running Microsoft Security Essentials as your anti-virus software, or something Symantec?

Sounds like it could be a software clash of sorts. Try to roll back your PC to a restore point set one or two weeks ago.
