pc freezes for few seconds
hi all, in the last months i've been facing this problem, as in title:
quite often, most of all if the computer is doing some "heavy" work like watching a video or video games, it freezes, leaving me watching the same still screen for a few seconds and not being able to move the cursor or pressing any letter. then screen gets back "moving". audio often continues even when the screen is still.
i've already installed the last video drivers, and the pc is surely "clean" by virus or malwares because i've installed windows 7 a few days ago, and formatted all the hdd.
also, i had windows 8 before, and the problem was there already. i'm quite afraid it's an hardware problem, but at least i'd like to do some other tests before being sure about it.
last thing, pc overheats, reaching 80° if i do something "heavy" for a lot of time, but the problem doesn't occurr after the pc is heated, even when it's still cold.
sorry for my english, hope what i wrote is clear.
