The PC in my sig randomly crashes on occasion: and I can't work out why.
Every now and again it will lock up - but it doesn't seem to be related to strain or heat.
Initially the mouse continues to work - although that stops after a few attempts at a ctrl+alt+del (which does nothing). The machine is clearly still working to some extent: my internet is routed through my LAN onto a connectify wireless hotspot in software on the PC, so the fact I'm writing this proves it's still whirring away in some way. In fact, as I write this it beeped (3 sets of 2 beeps, not a noise I recognise) and opened the ctrl+alt+del interface, and is now working again.
I simply can't see any link though: it doesn't seem to relate to what program is open in the foreground (although I've not tested combinations of background apps), nor as mentioned temperature and stress.
Stumped.
