HP Recommended
Product: TouchSmart 15
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Server 2003

My computer is 2 years old, was running Windows 8.1, updated to Windows 10 last year and has been running well until last month when the screen started going crazy (flashing lights, apps starting by themselves, cursor frozen) after a couple of hours of playing radio or my music.  There is no way to control by cursor or touch screen, and the only thing to do is turn off the power button.

I finally reset to factory specifications and only loaded a couple of applications (antivirus, HideMyAss, my music files) and that worked for a while, but problem has restarted.

I raised the computer an inch in case overheating was a problem, although it doesn't seem to run hot.

Anybody have any ideas?
