This has been occurring for months now.
It is EXTREMELY annoying, especially if I am in the middle of something very important.
The mouse cursor will lock, everything will freeze and this will usually be followed by any sound repeating/buzzing/freezing.
From here it is a complete freeze. The only way to get out of this is to restart my computer.
Now, another surprising thing is that usually I need to push my reset button in all the way for my PC to reset (I suppose this is so you don't bump the button). When the crash occurs I only have to slightly touch the reset button for my PC to completely shut down. Strange.
Upon first glance I suspected this to be my power supply, however now I am not sure, it could really be any other component.
I am fairly confident that this is hardware related, but not 100% sure what is causing these crashes.
Nothing seems to "trigger" the crashes. It can happen whilst watching videos, playing games, browsing the web, or simply idling.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
