Vista - Attention Vista Freezes Problem Solved!

06-30-2008

After several weeks trying to solve this problem, even reformatting,

replacing the power supply, cables, memory sticks, and more,

I believe I found the origin of the problem. And it seems to be related

to Vista.

Go to > Settings > Control Panel > Power Options > check the "High

Performance" option and then click the blue line underneath that reads:

"Change Plan Settings" a new windows will appear, click the blue line

that reads: "Change Advanced Power Settings", the "Power Options

Advance Settings" appear and you should click the "+" mark on

"Hard Disk", then click on "Turn off hard disk after", and set to "Never".

My several HD are all SATA, and when Vista shuts them down automatically,

the SATA do not restart immediately, and this is seen as a temporary freeze.

Since I entered these new settings, it's been working fine for a few days
now.

Good Luck

Willy

Not sure what the question was, but this was the answer for my formerly
insomniac Dell-running-Vista machine. Amazing! Whodathunk?
