Solved crashing problem

Howdy

My PC has been playing up for a while now. Initially thought it was a graphics card problem but now not so sure.

What it is doing lately is for no reason the screen goes a blank like pale blue accompanied by a terrible hum through the speakers. I have at other times had a blue screen with white writing on it, talking about disconnecting new hardware or software or something. The machine is freshly formatted and installed not long ago.

The computer is not that old so I don't understand it.

Thanks

Howdy. Turns out the problem I had was an overheating problem. Super fine mesh in front of front case intake fan was fully blocked with dust. I cleaned that and all problems disappeared.

Thanks anyway.
