There can be the following problems \n1. The Blaster Worm is on your comp. Visit the microsoft site for the patch. \n2. The power supply of your CPU is having a problem\n3. Your motherboard needs repair.

There might be some problem in your system,may be virus or some difficulty in hardware.The details you might know better.

You might have a lot of programs running and have little RAM memory left. Or maybe you might have a virus. I recomend that you check for viruses and for your memory.

I agree with you it might be a virus, at least is something related to software, cause if it is a hardware problem, it either work or completely no, but not erratic response to keys. Since you can't type to set a virus scan, all you can do is to take of the harddrive and connect it to a pc which have the latest antivirus protection and scan the attached drive with it to start with.

have you tried scanning the computer for viruses and spyware? that's one reason.\n\nAnother is possibly that the capacitors in your mother board are bloated. That happened to ours and my father just bought new ones that matched the bloated ones and soldered them in. Now our computer works again. \n\nOR try to see if your memory cards connection thingy( sorry forgot the term) are clean. \n\nOr the cpu fan ain't working properly.

I assume your computer is slow running - It may be a hardware issue - need more RAM\n\nalso - have you defragged lately - and check disk to see if you have any errors on the hard drive - those will cause you problems, too\n\nI have 2 gig of RAM and check disk weekly and defrag monthly. good luck

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it , it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software. Detailed instructions at http://tinyurl.com/yk5zpr

Sounds more like your computer's lacking processor power or low on RAM.\nWhat is your processor speed & how much memory are you working with?

you probably have faulty ram or cruddy clock settings.\ntake your pc into a professional and see what they can do to stabalize your system\n\nedit: your system is just okey dory then, isn't it? use less intense clock speeds. what is your system? amd?\ni have the same card, and the same problems. just don't use too aggressive clock settings on the ram (like CL2.5 versus CL2)\n\nreach me at evil@evildomain.org if you need further help, as i dont like checking back on answers

It could actually be your computer screen. I know that my old laptop had a malfunctioning screen. Try contacting the manufacturer to see if infact it is a monitor problem and not a software problem.

It's your computer has a very slow processor speed, than that could be the problem.  However, it is more likely that you have a virus.

Could be the cooling fan or the hard drive. Check both.

have you deleted files , scaned your disk , did a disk clean up, defragged lately.. those things can slow the comp down, if not done weekly.. maybe you need more ram.. did you update before you ran your virus scan.. sometimes all you need 2 do is reboot.. bummer eh

I had the same problem. Is was an electrical surge from my power source. Caused by  the fan motor in the processor. I had the motor replaced and it is back to normal.
