1. Start with checking you mouse!

We all have those days when we are so busy that the simplest things may not cross your mind. Sometimes it is not the PC: don’t forget to rule out issues with your mouse – perhaps the cable(if you still use it got unplugged from the source. Or if you use a wireless mouse, try changing the batteries. Sometimes it is that simple.

When people refer to computer freezing, they typically mean that computer system is unresponsive to any user action,  such as typing or using mouse on the desktop. In a nutshell, freezing means that nothing happens. Generally it does not mean that computer is broken, but rather that processor encountered an overload that cannot be handled. It can be a very frustrating experience, especially if you were working on something you did not have a chance to save yet.

There are several common causes of freezes. In this article, we will look at the typical Windows system and reasons for it getting a chill!
