My mom's computer has been having this problem where sometimes when I load a page that has flash, or if I load up Guild Wars, then the computer will completely lockup
The screen freezes, mouse/keyboard dont work, hard drive light is one solid color, and it remains like that forever, until i turn it off and back on.
The weird thing is when I hit the reset button it actually wont make the screen freeze go away I hear/see the cd drives doing the power reset, but the frozen image still remains on the screen!
But when i power off and power on, it boots up again. Sometimes it will freeze again right away, other times it will happen after say 10+ hours of use.
Anyone know what could be causing this? memtest reported 0 errors. prime95 wasnt crashing either.
I'm thinking maybe its the video card??
