RE: Vista freezes for 1-2 minutes

Would you post systyem specs re RAM and Graphics

Have you updated the Graphics Driver?

Also, the obvious thing to do is disconnect the USB Adaptor for a day, and
see if the problem persists or not!

RE: Vista freezes for 1-2 minutes

My computer installed updates on 12/18/07, and has the same problem now. I
wonder if the updates (SP1 to Office, etc.) created the problem.
