  1. I want to speak to someone about my computer screen locking up from malware


    I was doing educational research and my screen locked up saying it was infected to contact Microsoft. But that is not possible as no one will answer the phone and the VR does not understand and hangs up every minutes and a half.

    Random Auto-Locking of Computer Screen

    Nobody suggested checking out Event Viewer?

    When your computer randomly locks, search for, and open: Event Viewer

    Under Windows Logs, Check out:
    • Application
    • Security, and
    • System

    See if you can find something that states anything that could be related to your computer locking. The newest events are listed at the top of each section, so finding an event log would be pretty easy to find. Hopefully we can find what is causing the computer to lock.
