So I'm on my computer and it freezes for like a second, then the monitor acts as if it wasn't connected to the computer (the light turns orange instead of blue), and if I'm listening to music it stops too.. so i always have to turn off the computer...
why does this happen? what should I do?

sounds like it is going into hibernation which only happens if your not using it for a while you can turn off hibernation by right clicking on the desktop going to the screensaver tab then click on the power button on the bottom of the screensaver tab which will take you to the power options and then there should be a hibernate tab go to that one and make sure the box is unchecked

Well maybe your computer goes on stanby mode or the monitor turns off after certain amount of time.. has this always happened?? well what you can do and check would be go to start, control panel, power options, in Settings for home/Office desk power scheme make sure everything is on never, that way your monitor wont shut off.. good luck let me know what happens
