Can the cache be why computers go down?

I think so too that the cache is one of the reasons why computers go down.\n\nand why would the IRS spend their prefectly good time cleaning caches if it were not important.\n\nThat could explain why even secure servers can be brought down by the hackers.\n\nI quote "Theres never a totally 100% secure system"\n\nThats true because we keep securing and they keep attacking, exploiting, and destroying pcs.

not sure, but if you have too many programs running at once it can slow your pc down considerable

Have you done the regular maintenance stuff? Delete temp files (disc cleanup) and defrag? I would do that first. \nThen I would do another check by going to my computer, right click on C drive, click on tools, then check error checking check now. It won't do it until you restart. If that does not fix your computer then I would do the system restore.\n\nI would also run a spyware program to make sure you are not full of cookies.\n\nGood luck!

If it does only during startup then its the BIOS setting that holds the key. But if it does quite often during your normal working, then a virus could be a culprit. Another reason could of some program which has been run from the drive and stopped adruptly and its still seeking its home from the background.

yes.  because virtual memory is actually a part of the secondary storage i.e. your hard disk which is used by system temporoarily for swap files. \n\nif your primary memory is too low, then more of secondary storage is used up as virtual memory causing ur machine to slow down.

Simple answer: Yes.\n\n\nA little more complex answer: If you screwed with your registry without knowing what you are doing, do yourself a favor and reinstall windows.  Registry can and will cause a computer to go into shutdown.  If you want to go through some ahssel, try to do a system restore to take you back to before this problem happened

Maybe your hard drive needs to be de-fragged?

Their server might be down or saturated.

It could be due to any number of reasons. Try and narrow the problem down.\nIs it when you are running a particular application? \nHave your recently installed a new applications or hardware?\nIs it at a particular time of day? \n\nIs the CPU overheating?\nIs the RAM OK?\nLoose connector somewhere?\n\n\nHope that helps some :)

This is not nescessary. whenever the computer shuts down, everything in memory is erased. If you are looking to remove a process that runs and is taking up ram you must locate the actual progam that is loading that process into ram.

Your computer is probably getting slow because of spy-ware or a virus,or maybe you need to update your computer

If your comps working fine, the server is probably temporarily down

A corrupt cache could be the cause. Possible solution in the links below.

could be a number of things,\ncheck settings,\ntry turning off screen savers temporarily,\nrun scandisk error checker,\nanilize with defragmenter,\n\ncheck hardware connections and temperatures for cpu and video board,\n\nempty temp folder\ndelete browser cache files,,

It sounds like you have a virus.  Some malware may have hijacked the computer and might be using it as a server.\n\nEither that or the computer does not have sufficient RAM.  It's storing programs in use on the hard drive instead.  The hard drive is roughly 1,000 times slower than the RAM.  The cure is upgrading the RAM.\n\nIn either case, you're gonna need a computer guy to take a look.\n\nIf it's malware or insufficient RAM, just buying a new computer might not fix the problem because that computer will, without a firewall, just get infected again.

could be a hardware or heat related condition. if the fan for the cpu stops working, the cpu will get too hot and the computer will shut it's self down.

could be a bad ram stick
