Try booting to safe mode by tapping F8 after pressing the power button and then restoring the OS back to a date before the problem began.
Please identify your PC with its p/n. You should be able to find that on a sticker on the side or at the rear of your PC.

If it's still doing it in safe mode, try a System Restore first to revert the settings to a particular date when it was running fine.
Worst case, you can do a System recover on this. Good luck. ![]()
