Imagine your computer is like a toy car that needs instructions to move. When you give it too many instructions at once, or the instructions are mixed up, the car gets confused and stops working. That’s what happens when your computer crashes, it can’t keep up with all the things it has to do.
Examples
- Your computer freezes when you open too many windows at once.
- A game crashes because it can’t handle all the details at the same time.
- The screen goes black after you click a suspicious link.
