Constant freeze of PC and display
The pc is behaving badly. It is freezing every few seconds and the display blinks slightly during the freeze. So when you are moving the mouse it freezes and your movement become tough to control. I installed the latest video driver, that did not do anything. I reviewed the memory usage - don't think that is the problem. Had the registry cleaned and PC cleaned up by virus programmes etc, nothing has worked. Going completely nuts because can not work on it without constant delays. Its every few seconds.
does it do the same in safe mode?
No sir,
You need to download this as an ISO file here:
http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html
On the same page. it tells you how to Burn / Write is to a CD / DVD
Once you have it as CD or DVD, you need to boot off this disc you just created. the you will see some options like the screen shot on the site shows.

Before starting the hardware diagnostics, it might be useful to look in the event logs. Are there any unusual errors logged in the application, system or security logs?
Is this a Desktop or a Laptop... ? (First of all)
PC is a global term.
First of all run a RAM test with Memtest +86.
-Download this: http://www.memtest.org/dow
-Burn what you ve downloaded to a CD.
-Boot from CD
-Let the test runs for at least 5 times FULL passed.
Laptop? Connect a external monitor to it and verify if the problem still persist.

>> and PC cleaned up by virus programmes <<
Did you find any Malware or viruses?
If yes, did you run Malwarebytes?
If no, try downloading & updating Malwarebytes(MBAM) from here:
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
Run in normal mode.
Tutorial, if required:

If MBAM won't run, download and run Rkill first.
Do not boot after running Rkill, then run MalwareBytes.

It does do the same in Safe Mode. When I removed video driver and re-installed the new one I had to go into Safe Mode and it did perform the same way.

This is a PC Desktop.
I did not find any Malware or Viruses.

I really do think you need to download the iso and do a full hardware check. We get this all the time at our workshop and its either Memory or HDD to what you have explained.
Good luck.

Lekos and hrr1963:
I need to pick up a CD as all I have is recordable DVDs that are not picking up the downloaded files.
I have also done a hardware check but the results are alien to me. The programme I used does not tell me much in clear english all in figures and stuff.

have you tried powering off and reseating the RAM, Graphics (if a separate card), HDD cables etc?
The ISO should burn on DVD. Do you have a USB pen / Flash memory?
