Computer freezes up

Comment:

Hi.. having this problem since quite some time now. My PC freezes randomly, anytime. When it freezes, the screen on my monitor goes bit yellow at places, and PC totally freezes. Wont respond to anything. Alt+Ctl+Del dosent work, nothing. Have to hard reboot it. Cant understand why its happening. Not associated with any particular application. Any clues? Anupam

I would look at updating/replacing the graphics driver! Obama's Spread the Wealth I gave my waitress' tip to a homeless person. She has a better understanding!

probably a buggered graphics card or mobo. Medion MIM 2080 Toshiba T2130CT Macintosh Performa 450 All working wonderfully.
