My computer keeps freezing after about 5-10 minutes of use. It has done it 3 times in a row now and all i am doing is watching a youtube video's, is there anything i can do to try and find out what the cause of this problem is? Thanks.

You can monitor your temps and check drivers. You can also check HDD for bad sectors. There's a lot you can do.

run memtest 86. if you have any linux disks lying around, they will likely have it on them. if not, www.memtest86.com wait for it to completely finish and if it posts any errors, you need new ram. also, please post system specs.
