  3. Please since my pc updated to 1809 version, each Time i watch movies it freezes, can you help me with it

    • Uninstall the update.
      >Open up your Windows Settings and head back into “Update & security”
      >Click on the “Windows Update” tab, and then on “Update history”.
      >On the next screen, click on “Uninstall updates”

    • Windows Update sometime isn’t cool over the air, you can backup up your files and data then perform a clean install, you’ll enjoy it. I experienced the same problem after updating.

  8. In my own own case… My pc Gets very hot. You can even Use it to cook yam. Very very hot to the point that it will off by it self and request i should cool it. HP 630 pc. It wasent like this when i First bought it.

    • You need to fix the internal cooling. Clean the fan(s) that provide(s) cooling to the CPU and graphics card. Over time, they build up layers of dust and dirt that slow them down and block airflow.

    • So many reason… but it can easily be fix.
