This issue started yesterday, I log on and start browsing youtube and myspace and all of the sudden my screen freezes, so im like alright "CTRL+ALT+DELETE" and that does not even pop up, i have to restart my computer by holding my power button everytime it freezes, I have ran CCcleaner and cleaned my registry and all of that stuff, I have my side panel off my case and a fan blowing right on it, I cleaned ALL the dust out of the computer, as well as taking the PSU out and taking its casing off and cleaning it out also. I just updated my video drivers and restarted my computer and it is still freezing, it freezes everytime i am on the web, at any site, it just freezes. i know it cant be a heating issue because i played counter strike 1.6 for a good 3 hours and it never froze one time while playing this. also, my sound is not working through my speakers but will work through my headphones for some odd reason, and I am using a gateway computer and there is a orange light that flashes for some reason too and upon startup my computer sounds like its ticking/scratching, its not that loud but it sounds like one of those older computer trying to load something.


i dont know what my computer specs are if you can tell me where to find them in my computer ill will post them. i dont know what to do, i even did a system restore back to 5 days ago. like i said, my computer was running perfect 2 days ago, i log on yesterday and it starts freezing for no reason.


please help me, im getting really upset. thanks!

From what the OP has stated, it sounds more than likely like a hard drive issue, as it appears the drive is clicking, and a hard drive failure would cause random freezing.
 
Just a thought but computer will not be harm if you try my suggestions, Right. O ya sounds that hard drive is noisy well my other computer sounds like that but I thought it was toasted did replaced it with the same capacity. Then I try to add the old hard drive in again ,it works! I just formatted the old hard drive of mine and back to service.
