Computer Problems

[GirlNextDoor15]

Hi. So, I have a few computer problems. Firstly, it's restarting itself randomly. This problem started a few weeks ago. It was not that often like now. It was just restarting automatically once in a while. I thought it was normal but it's more frequent now. Secondly, the keyboard was like unplugged and not working. I checked it by pressing the caps lock button and there's no light. However, it was ok a few minutes after that. Thirdly, the mouse was not working for a few minutes and after that few minutes, it's working like normal again. Those problems happen at the same time and the screen looked like it's frozen. I need help with this. I'm afraid it's some virus problem but I'm not sure. Any idea why is this happening?

Your computer is possibly overheating, open it up and clean all the crap out of it, if you don't feel confident doing that then take it to someone like PC World (they'll charge stupid amounts though). If not, backup, format, reinstall.

There is some connections issue. Recheck if all of your cables are connected properly. Next also make sure there is no dust inside your computer or near the sockets of mouse, keyboard, power connector etc. Use some air compressor to remove them.

Check for dust. It normally clogs up. I had the same problem as you a few years back and once I cleaned it up it was fine.
