Takinalis got a reaction from STLreaper in Please help! Random shut down.
My best suggestion is to take it apart as much as you are willing and able, then put it back together again. You'd be surprised how often this works, just be careful not to break anything, if you disconnect the CPU from the cooler be sure to scrape and reapply thermal paste.
Good luck

You can change the page file size by doing:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items -> System On the left pane, select "Advanced system settings" In the dialog that pops up, press the "Settings..." button in the "Performance" section In the dialog that pops up, select the "Advanced" tab In the "Virtual memory" section, press the "Change ..." button Set it to whatever you want as long as it's over 1GB. But do not disable the page file.

Takinalis got a reaction from K i a r a in Possible Virus?.. Need Help!
OK, this is obviously Windows 10. In my opinion for the average user, your best bet is to click start and type 'Reset this PC'. Feel free to keep your files in this case ~ I believe it wipes out %temp% and %appdata%, which is probably where the virus lives, but probably delete everything out of your downloads folder without prejudice.
You'll need to reinstall your games, your MS office and any other registered software - install your steam client your battle net and what nots, and then have fun. Just my opinion on your quickest, safest, easiest route back to good health.
