I have an iMac G5 that keeps freezing on me. It occurs more so when I use iTunes. The computer freezes and even the mouse turns off. I have to completely turn off and on the computer to get it working again. Could anyone tell me what it is? Virus?
Got a tip for us?

Have you tried running disk utility from an OSX install disc. You may need to do a repair on you HD. It also could be a virus but I would attempt a repair first to see if that helps.
If the repair doesn't fix the problem, try creating a new user. You may simply have a corrupted file in your user.
Hope this helps.
