Need some help.
suppp,
small problem with my computer. Im starting to think that the mainboard it is not mounted properly on the case. But, everytime I bump or even move my computer in the slightist it has a huge freeze. Eg, I cannot open task manager move my mouse or anything else. I restart it and it works fine once more. Any idea?

no its problably not the issue but i am a firm believer that if its not plugged in its not inside. More stuff in the case less air circulation. But seeing how its not being used, it could be anything from the hard drive skipping to a loose heat sink to needing some thermal paste. watch your temps also, you could be simply overheating.
if it were my home pc that i dont care about i would just kick it see if it locks up. if it does reboot make sure you mount the HD and kick it again. If it doesnt do it. then its probably not your HD.
