This started yesterday or today, can't recall, every couple of seconds, my computer freezes, and I can't do anything for like 1 -10 minutes. i'ts unbearable and it's driving me crazy!

At first the time between freezes was like 2 - 10 minutes, but it slowly got worse, now it happens every 5 seconds, and I tried everything.. I restarted the computer, turned it off and let it cool for a while then turned it on again, I deleted some things and freed some space, I ran troubleshoot, but nothing helped.. it still freezes..

I'm sure that it's not becuase that my RAM have too little free space(9.96 GB free space out of 111 GB), becuase it always been like that, and it didn't make any problems for me.

Although, when I turned the computer off for like 20 minutes to let it cool, it got better when i turned it on again, but after a while the freezes came back, so it could be a heat problem.

Note: a while before I got an alarm that said that my windows isn't genuine, it deleted my windwos anti-virus, turned my screensaver black, and on the right-bottom there's a message that says that my windows insn't genuine. Everytime i turn on the computer it asks me to get the genuine version, but i click remind me later, and occasionally it warns me that I don't have an anti-virus and I should get the genuine version. but I ignore all of those alarms, becuase untill now, it didn't say anything about my windows version. But I don't think that it have anything to do with the freeze problem, becuase it started way before my computer started freezing. And i didn't download anything since it started warning me.

tl;dr - my computer keeps freezing and my windows isnt genuine, help.

Thanks for helping :thumb:

Is this a Laptop or a Desktop? A computer that freezes is either overheating or has a failing Power Supply Unit (desktop) If a desktop, shutdown the computer and open the side, clean out all dust and blow out all fans with a can of compressed air. Look at the label for the PSU. Report the Make, Model # and Wattage. Restart the computer and make sure all fans are spinning.
As for non-genuine Windows you will need to purchase a Windows key and activate it again. If your computer came pre-installed, I would talk to whomever installed it for you. If you, yourself installed Windows, then you will need to get a disc that has not been activated. We cannot help you with circumventing Windows Activation.

Hi, you reference:-

I'm sure that it's not becuase that my RAM have too little free space(9.96 GB free space out of 111 GB), becuase it always been like that, and it didn't make any problems for me.
This makes no sense, are you saying your hdd has 9.96 gb space left?


You should run the MS util MGADiag to check your system, it will enable you to repair your non genuine problem. Run the attached .zip program and double click on the returned .exe file (this program has been virus scanned for your safety).When you run it select copy and paste the report here.
