About a month ago my computer began freezing during downloads, First noticed it when I was downloading games during the steam sale. It has continued happening now whenever I download anything from the internet. It also happens during youtube videos.

When it freezes the screen will freeze followed a few seconds later by a buzzing audio sound, if it was a youtube video it will be very slow distorted audio from the video with a lot of buzzing, which makes it so you cant understand, and the screen will still be frozen. The same happens during downloads, screen and mouse lock up and the speakers buzz. It usually happens at the start or a few seconds into the video. And during downloads it happens randomly throughout the download.
