My laptop was working fine all morning. I stopped to do some laundry so I turned it off for about 2 hours. Turned it back on and Windows 8.1 loaded up fine. I launched Firefox and it went to Google, my homepage. I then tried going to Twitter and half of the page loaded then everything froze. My mouse would not move the curser. Nothing on the keyboard would function. I waited for ten minutes and did a hard reboot.
I started up again from scratch and it happened again, this time instead of getting my homepage it tried going to an app game on Facebook that was the last thing I was on right before shutting down hours earlier for the laundry. Hard reboot again but I launched IE this time. Using IE I immediately I tried to Google for what could have been the issue. IE was working so I thought it must just be Firefox. But after about ten minutes IE froze also.
I rebooted again. This time I launched Firefox and quickly deleted my History, Cookies and Cache. Since then it seems to be working fine. Going on 45 minutes with no problems. Hopefully this fixed it but I don't see why since IE was acting up also.
MY computer did install a Windows update when I started up after it had been sitting for that few hours.
It might continue to keep working but just in case it freezes again I thought I would try to figure out why and find a solution if needed so I'll be ready when it happens.
Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?
