    I was using my computer when the screen had a message come up from Windows Support Alert saying my computer had some unusual activity on it and was now frozen and to ring a number to free it. Is this a scam and how do I free my computer. Even the mouse is not working. Help please David

    Computer is frozen, won't accept input from keyboard or mouse

    In the computer hope link for RAM it suggested removing all RAM modules.
    Then power on the computer without RAM modules and listen to the beeps.
    Indicate whether they do or do not match the beep sounds in your video.

    Please complete all of the POST troubleshooting steps so that can be ruled in / ruled out.
