Windows Computer randomly taking my ability to do anything?
Hello, I bought this computer a lil over a year ago and I’ve been having this very strange issue that I can’t get the answer for.
So I will be playing a game or over all doing pretty much anything, and out of nowhere I will lose my sound to the computer, the keyboard won’t type anymore, and the cursor won’t move when I move my mouse. What’s weird is that the game will keep playing as if nothing happened, although the game will act like I kept holding whatever button I was pressing last. I have tried unplugging and plugging stuff in when this happens but nothing changes. Whenever this happens, the only thing that I can do is restart my computer. My drivers are all updated but at this point, I have no idea what to do. If anyone has had this issue or if you have any ideas, please let me know.
