PC hangs; what to do?

CPU
Your PC seemed okay at the start. It booted up fine. But after about an hour of using it, it hanged. What to do?

The first move you’d probably do is check if it is a memory related glitch. You may resort to using a PC Memory Diagnostic software to help you find out what’s wrong with the memory. If however the test results came out well, the next step would be to isolate and check other problem areas such as Motherboard, CPU or other hardware.

Take note too that failures in hardware are usually due to the age of the memory components. Sometimes the defective memory module socket, dirty contacts, cold solder joints and memory module can cause the problem.
