why does my computer hardware crash?
LockedIm not sure crash is the proper term.
while using computer screen goes dark. Power light says lit. After several minutes I press-hold power button and after 5 seconds it powers down. I restart. It takes a very long time to boot up, then all is ok for months.
This has occurred a total of 3 times in the past 6 months.
I dont have any new apps or drivers installed that i know of.
I dont remember exactly what I was doing. It was either in my email app or reading something on the net or watching a video. I dont remember if it was triggered by an action on my part like a click or keystroke.
I didnt know if this is just an issue with monitor or with the actual computer.
So then I memorized keystrokes to power down the computer. I’ve been using those every time i turn off my computer since that 2nd occurrence above.
Months later while watching a video, it happened a 3rd time. I was 10 feet away and this long video is almost complete. The screen goes blank and this time the audio changes to a buzz-hum and does not stop. After a minute of no video and that constant buzz-hum I tried my shutdown keystrokes and that didnt work. After another minute i tried again. Nope, i cant shut down the computer. So, it’s not just a monitor issue.
The next boot up took a long time. (maybe because of improper shutdown?)
That was several weeks ago and I’m still using the keystrokes to shut down my computer.

Hardware crashes are a common occurrence on computers. They can be caused by many different issues, such as overheating, viruses, and hardware failure. If your computer is constantly crashing, it may be time to consider replacing the hard drive or repairing the motherboard.
