CubanCarlos Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hiya guys! Ive been looking around the internet for a solution to the problem, but ive come back empty handed. I thought i would try it out here, seeing as how we have many talented computer wizzes. So, this problem has been happening for two or three weeks now, what happen is out of nowhere, usually when i open a program like safari or steam, it freezes. every ten seconds or so, the computer blinks black, it unfreezes for half a second, and then repeats. When i get on safari, it usually only happens once, but when i open up steam or other applications like vent, it goes for much longer, and i end up having to restart. Tell me anything you guys need to make a diagnostic, and i will be glad to give it to you. please don't be a douche, this problem is a real hassle and i want to get rid of it once and for all. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingless Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) Feels like your computer is chewing on itself for some reason or another. Is your CPU or memory usage pegged? Could be a virus or malware. It could also be some ram that is crapping out on you. Memtest never hurts.

animeking503 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Install Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (Free, just google it). Install it and then update and run it. This will see if you have any spyware or malware on the system. This is a good 1st step usually! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
