Your English is just fine; far better than my Portugeuse!

Something is running that is failing. You have to determine what that
is. Do all troubleshooting systematically, making one change and
testing before going onto something else.

1. First, make sure your computer is completely virus and malware-free.
Here are steps to follow for that:

2. If the computer is clean and the problem persists, try some
clean-boot troubleshooting:

and How to Troubleshoot By Using the Msconfig Utility in Windows XP -

3. Also look in the Event Viewer for clues.
Start>Run>eventvwr.msc [enter]

4. And as always, ask yourself "what changed between the time things
worked and the time they didn't?".
