Hi, Im wondering if any of you have ever experienced this problem - Recently, my PC screen has been glitching, and not long after that, my system freezes. It happened numerous times today, for no apparent reason. I havent installed new hardware/software, and havent made any changes to my PC's setting in general. Could it be power related?

I can 1000% assure you it is not a power problem.
this problem can be caused by pretty much anything.
you need a process of elimination, first of all you need to idenentify if it is hardware or software related... when the system freezes, does the num-lock work??
if it does, it is software or OS related, if not, it is hardware.

Oh, I didnt know that by pressing Num Lock, you could assess whether it is hard/soft ware related. Ok, My numlock does not work when it feezes. I guess its hardware related then. Maybe one of my components blew or something. Il have to check it out. Thanks for that tip.

The NumLock trick is used as a good indicator if your system is completly frozen or only the explorer process.
