Ok so, suddenly, my computer is being very annoying.
Sometimes, the mouse freezes for a few seconds, then it makes a dong sound in like 5 - 10 seconds, and it works again. During the course of those seconds, the keyboard is working.
Sometimes though, both the mouse and keyboard just suddenly stop working, but everything continues. I still hear sound, but even after 5 or 10 minutes, it is still frozen. At that point, I have to hold down the power button on my computer, and restart it.
When it finally comes back on, it takes like 3 - 5 minutes, where all of the processes in the task manager are at 0% with 0 CPU. The list of processes is also really short. After the 3-5 minutes, everything starts working at once.
Then it eventually will freeze again. Sometimes it takes about 5 - 10 minutes, sometimes 5 - 10 hours.
I have Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
I was informed this was something wrong with the motherboard, but I am not sure
This also will never happen when I am not touching the computer, even if it is using RAM intensive processes.
SPECS:
Brand: Dell
Model: Vostro 460
Stuff:
Intel Core i5 2500
Dell Inc. 0Y2MRG (Motherboard)
Intel(R) HD Graphics
Any way to solve this? Thanks
