Computers Freezes Computer Case's Red Light (Hard Drive) stops blinkin

Cryox · 24 Aug 2015

My Computer freezes and stops working only when im downloading a torrent or try to stream!
The Red Blinking light (Which im sure is for the Hard Disk) stops blinking once these freezes happen
When it freezes sometimes i cant even restart it with the restart button on the case and have to take its cable out.The problem has been on my computer for a year but i havent tried fixing it.

I had a blue screen of death once but that was months ago.
Havent ReInstalled Windows even once since ive got it last year.

Sidenote: I sometimes have Administrator problems and cant do some stuff when i am the administrator could that be the problem?

Did you do system restore thingies before installing a program? Torrent downloads are mostly unreliable, and some even bring viruses.

Try Using a different program for torrent-ing and try downloading a random safe torrent (e.g. Chocolate Rain )
Scan your whole computer for viruses also. If it has found any, remove them.
Freezing can happen if you're running too many unncessary programs. If so, close unnecessary programs (except your Antivirus), leaving the Torrent Downloader alone.

Let me know if the problem persists.
