Well, my computer has a nice new tendency to start up, wait anywhere from 2 minutes to 2 hours, and freeze. No response from anything. I have to manually kill the power and start it up again. I'm thinking it could be one of three: my mobo, my CPU, or my RAM.
Mobo: Stock Intel mobo, chipset is the 915G Express (old, I know)
CPU: Pentium 4 2.8Ghz (also stock)
RAM: Dell DDR2 PC2-6400 RAM (2GB, put in 2005)
I have had no blue screens, but I have had total computer shutdowns "due to thermal events" as my boot-up screen tells me.
Which one do I replace, or do I replace all three?
