Hi,

Everytime I play a game my headset makes a sort of pitch dropping noise and then my mouse/keyboard switch off. The screen is still on but I can't do anything so I have to restart my computer. It then occasionally shows me a screen about overclocking set up but I don't know much about computers so I don't know what to do. If anyone has an answer can you word as if I'm an idiot who knows nothing about computers thank you!

It could be that the overclock is not stable. Try lowering it a bit and see if it still freezes on you.

How do I do that? Lower the overclocking?

 

[TecnotecPC]

Yes, just lower the overclock. Here is a good guide for you.

So I did what the video said and its4 still occurring. What happens is the computer screen freezes, all USBs switch off but the computer is still working, all lights and fan is still going but I can't do anything. I can't CTRL ALT DEL. I don't know what to do, I'm googling answers but nothing seems to be working
