Zillions of software problems can cause problems like yours.
If you have any other symptoms, the more you supply the details about, the better.

It could also be caused by a hardware problem.

See the part starting.....
Something else may be wrong.

Also

- you can have all sorts of problems if the partition Windows is on, which is usually C, does not have enough free space on it - what's the size of your partition (logical drive) Windows is on, and how much free space is on it??

- if your computer is a desktop computer....
Failing power supplies are common and can cause your symptoms.
Check your PS.
