More frustration!

Can someone throw any light on this? Frequently while browsing, my PC will start behaving erratically. When trying to open a file or folder, the window appears blank white - no text or graphics.
It is accompanied by high fan speed. I thought it may be due to overheating, but after allowing it to cool, it still occurs. The only solution seems to be to re start the PC. Any ideas? Thanks.

Unsure. Do you have sufficient resources for all you are trying to do ?
Sounds like the PC is chronically short of memory .. or overheating.
What is the specification and vintage of the PC. Make, model, CPU type and speed, memory size, hard disc size (and free disc space)?
Nowadays you will need 2 Gb of memory to run a Microsoft Operating System.
