    Did you check the video card? Always a possibility. Had a computer that would go into a black screen. turned out to be a video card. Do you have a large enough power supply for the dual cores?

    Try using the second to the last option (limit CPU/GPU usage) under the graphic's Troubleshooting tab.

    This will help if your GPU is getting too hot.

    I have a power supply off 750watt. That isn't the problem i quess. It's not if he deactivate the computer, he get stuck and you have only the rattling sound.
    Do you mean that my vidiocard is possible broken? It's a Radeon 4800HD.
    When i go on you tube and i want to lissen to music then is working perfect, even in high resolutions.

    Anyway, i want to thank you for your answer.
