    Dell XPS 8300 Locking up constantly

    Hello friend, last week, I bought new Dell XPS 8300 and I installed windows 7 on it. The configuration of this desktop is Intel Core i5-2300 processors with 8GB RAM and now it creates locking up problem. Whenever I press the turn on button of the desktop then after few minutes it completely freezes. The mouse and keyboard present in the system are not able to do any kind of task. In that situation I used the hard reboot options. But it just turn off the system but after that same thing is happen in the system. Any type of help will be appreciates.

    This kind of problems indicates that the CPU fan not working properly. Then I suggest try to Check whether CPU fan is properly work or not. You can do this task by just open the desktop panel and then turn on the system. If the CPU fan is moving on correct directions, then it works correctly. Otherwise it might be possible that the problem is existing in the system. Then you need to replace that FAN. Also try to insert the extra FAN into that CPU. That will be helps to keep the temperature of the processor as low as possible. Then hot air is goes outside the cabinet and at that result desktop locking up problem is solved.

    It could be possible that most dangerous virus is present in the system and hence it creates major issues in the system. Then I suggest you to remove that virus from the system. There are so many antiviruses present in the system. Then buy any good official antivirus and then install this correctly onto the system. Then run it on the system and scan the total system memory. This will be helps to remove the virus from the system. Most of the time it works to solve the trouble.

    Hey dude, if you have bought this desktop in the last week then definitely it will be in the warranty period. Then I recommended you to just search the nearest service center. The expert person present in that center will help you to solve the trouble. See, sometimes there is possibility that the problem is present in the motherboard and I think you haven’t knowledge about this motherboard. Hence you need good expert advice. Then go to service center and solve this trouble
