It depends on what kind of issues you're having. For starters, look up the symptoms your computer is having, and compare them to what possible scenarios your computer is having.

For example, if your computer is slow, the chances are that your hardware is struggling or failing, your [mechanical] hard disk is heavily fragmented, you have too many processes running at the same time, or your computer may be infected.

If you get BSODs or kernel panics (in Unix-derived systems like OS X, BSD, Solaris, or Linux), usually they will tell you what is the underlying problem. But this usually means that there's some hardware or driver issues.

As Roy in The IT Crowd says, "Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?" If that works, it's simple. If it doesn't, it's not.

Often not simple. Occasionally as simple as shutting it down for a minute or two, but not always.
