My com hangs once in a while...

My com been hanging recently... During severe cases... When i restart right after it hangs... It will hang again...
But only after allowing it to rest for some time... It works normally when i restart...
During light cases, i can use it for a longer period of time before it hangs again...
Anyone knows wad's the cause... Is it due to hardware, com overheat or graphics problem... Your comment(s)/help is greatly appreciated... -

Might be some heat problems. Get Speedfan to monitor it. If your PC's temperatures are shooting above 70 degree Celsius, it's a problem.
Will need to clean up your PC of dust. If it doesn't work, get an extra fan or need to check if your heatsink is faulty.
If temperature isn't the problem, then post back again... -
Ok thks... Shall go and check it out...

Temperature 3 - what time was it?
It's nearing 70 degrees Celsius, and some computers might not be able to take it.
How old is your computer? -

Thanks btw -
Hmm... I was wondering if low graphic memory could be a cause for com to hang too... Mine is 32 only...
Cause, sometimes com hangs only after using for a long time... While sometimes onli after awhile... -
Never faced such problems... at the most only a lag when graphics are intensive.
A random hang usually indicates hardware problems. Are the hangings still happening very frequently? -
Hmmm... Not as frequent... ERm... Is it possible that i put another CPU fan inside... Let's say i take one frm my old com... Just asking...Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Never faced such problems... at the most only a lag when graphics are intensive.
