Your system may be encountering what is called a "system error". These can be caused by a variety of things. I wrote a tutorial with screenshots here. This may cause your computer to show what is called a STOP error, which will show on a blue screen (jokingly called a Blue Screen of Death, or BSOD) with a hexidecimal number (such as 0x00000024). Please write down this number and post it if you receive one. Also, if there is a file with a .sys ending, please write it down and post it as well.
