Does anyone else have this problem? Every 1-8 hours or so it'll go up to 100% for a few minutes and sometimes I'll have to shutdown my computer and it doesn't work to shut it down sometimes so I have to press the power button. Also sometimes when I reboot the computer won't recognize any of the USB ports so I can't use my mouse and everything is really messed up. Also, this can happen without anything running. (literally no programs will be open and CPU will be at around 70-90%)

Also, sometimes it keeps beeping at a high pitch and it's usually loud.

I've sorta fixed it by adding more virtual memory, and changing quality-type settings to performance, removing certain startup processes, and even did a complete factory reset but that never permanently fixed it.

By the way I'm running Windows 7. Never got Windows 10 because it wouldn't work for me. Probably going to clear the install files soon.

Most people are probably gonna post not seriously here anyways but I want to know if anyone else has this problem because I don't know what to do about it really.

And I bet that at least one person will say something along the lines of "delete system32 xddd". That's pretty much dead at this point but go ahead anyways lol.

I've checked for malware literally everywhere and my former anti-virus didn't detect it. I removed my anti-virus though because it was slowing down my PC a lot. I don't think my anti-virus was the problem because it literally came with my computer though lol.

It's probably a hardware problem since my computer sometimes goes to (literally) 100-110 degrees celcius which is insane. Luckily I found a solution that keeps the temperature a lot lower (usually around 60-85 which is so much better) but that's still a little hot I think.

This has been happening since I got the computer though, but it was very rare and happened every month or so. Now it's happening almost on a daily basis. Sometimes it even shuts down from overheating but since my factory restore it hasn't done that. (yet)

The only things I have installed atm is ROBLOX, paint(dot)net, notepad++, audacity, opera, chrome, and firefox. I always triple-check the link at the bottom left to make sure I'm actually getting the download from the site too. I highly doubt it's a virus.

Thanks for the reply, btw.

yw, you most likely damaged the hardware. if you FR and your AV didn't detect a virus, that's highly unlikely

Yeah. Hopefully I'll be able to fix it soon.

Probably a lot of dust got in the system because it's making this really loud noise. It does this a lot of the time so I have to wear headphones to cancel the sounds since it gets really annoying at times.

I think I should try cleaning it out.
