Constant freezing

[Guest]

My computer is constantly freezing, especially when playing games. It also
freezes when trying to run a full anti virus scan and also when running
diskcleanup. Cannot find the source of the problem and would be grateful for
any info that might help resolve this problem. I have all current updates
for the products installed.

What do you mean by freezing? Does the computer lockup so you have to
turn it off with the power button, or does the program lock up but you
can end the program with task manager? Have you done a thorough scan
for malware using a variety of programs and run those scans in safe
mode? When did this problem start? Was it always like this? If not
what changed?

Please provide a good description of the issue to help others help you.
