I've been having some recurring trouble with my PC. It will randomly hang and I have to shut it off and power it back on. I couldn't see any rhyme or reason to it until tonight I realized something that seems to trigger it - touching the case! :confused: Doesn't happen every time.
Now the PSU has been replaced, the old Antec PSU I had died. Apparently though the PSU isn't the cause of the hangups since I replaced it with the Corsair unit and it still does it. It isn't the wiring in the building either, because it has done this at 2 other houses as well. Can't be the UPS, it has done it when only on a surge protector. Also, it has apparently frozen up without me touching it before, because I've come back to the room from class or work and found that it had rebooted at some point. But I'm guessing it must all be linked somehow....
Does ANYONE have any idea why my system could be doing this to me? Kind of a pain not being able to touch the case since I have a door on the front. HELP ME PLEASE!!
