I've had my Presario CQ56 laptop (HP) for just under a year or so and its always been perfect apart from the odd virus in the past which has been gotten rid of. Recently though out of nowhere my laptop has begun too crash whilst on the internet, not crash as in stop working and have to re-open the program and start again but fully freeze and not unfreeze unless i switch the laptop on and off again and even sometimes in startup the laptop will freeze unless i try for a second time. It seems too primerilly freeze when i am watching something online or even youtube. The video will suddenly slow for a few seconds and the audio becomes crackly and distorted then it stops altoegther. Weirdly though i can still play games on my laptop and other things that use a lot of memory. I recently removed some huge pogrames taking up a lot of gb off the laptop thinking that may be it and ran a virus scan which came up with nothing! Can anybody explain what i can do too make this stop as its making my laptop useless!

In my errors list i have just one thing under Critical and that is 'Kernal-Power' which has happened 28 times over the last 7 days?
Under Error there is quite a few would you like me too list them cause theres more than 10 i'd say? Some that appear frequently are ...
Event ID: 6008 EventLog although i dont think this is the problem as it exsists before i had problems on the laptop

Please start your own topic
Although your issue may seem similar there can be other factors that may need to be resolved.
By bumping on someone's topic it makes it confusing for the tech to understand who they are helping. This can in turn cause the wrong support to be given and can cause instability or worse to happen to your system.
Please post more information as to your exact issue in your topic. Include any error messages you get as well as your system specs. This will help us to assist you more efficiently.
Thank you for your cooperation.
