I've been having some serious issues with my PC for the past week. It's like my computer has a mind of its own—constantly pressing all the keys and opening multiple programs at once. This chaotic behavior happens at random times, and I'm puzzled about what's causing it. I doubt it's a virus since it goes through phases of acting up and then stopping. Could it be related to my motherboard, or is there something else I should be looking into? Any advice would be appreciated!

Unplugging your keyboard and mouse is a great first step! If that stops the weird behavior, then your input devices might be the problem. If it still acts up, try rebooting into BIOS or the boot menu. If it's fine there, it’s likely a software issue under Windows.
Your problem could be due to a few things: 1) A virus, 2) An electrical issue outside the motherboard, or 3) Problems with your input devices. Try switching the USB ports for your mouse and keyboard, or even testing with different peripherals if you can. Running your PC in safe mode might also help identify the issue better.
Thanks for the tips! I haven't downloaded anything recently, so I doubt it’s a virus. It might be an electrical issue since I've been having some humidity problems in my apartment. My PC sometimes refuses to turn on, or I get a black screen and need to restart.
First off, try running diagnostics on your hardware. If your PC is flickering on and off, there could be loose connections or failing components. Keep an eye on those power supply issues too. Good luck!
Honestly, maybe your computer is overwhelmed by the lack of punctuation in your post! Just kidding—sounds frustrating. For real, it might help to check if your hardware is directly responsible or if it's more related to software issues. Good luck!
That's a solid idea! I’ll definitely give that a try.
