PC Help

[TotalFrost]

Alright I've had an Acer pc for about one and a half year now, and it has started to run in to problems. The problem is that the pc works fine for about five minutes, but then it slows down to a crawl and it then proceeds to freeze. The only way to get it to unfreeze is to reboot it. So, if anyone can help please do so.

sounds like it could use a good cleaning...both inside and out

I would clean out the dust from it

and then do a clean install of the OS ...don't forget to backup your data first tho

Boot it up in Safe Mode and see if it still has the same issue. If so it very likely is a thermal issue.

Also - Have you checked it for virus' and/or maleware? If the issue is still there in Safe Mode, try to run a Malwarebytes and AV scan to see what they find.

could also boot up a linux cd and see if its still acts weird
