Gee... your computer might be "freezing" for any multitude of reasons. What do you mean by "freeze?" Are you getting a blue screen with white letters that requires you to hit the power button on your computer to "get back" to the desktop? If yes to this question, what's the error msg on that blue screen? Or... does your computer screen just stop at some point and not allow you to interact with it at all? If yes to this question, how long do you wait before rebooting the PC? What were you doing when the freeze occurred? If you had the computer for five months and it just recently started "freezing," then one must assume something changed on the system that brought about the "freezing" problem. Some change... some new software install or a Windows update or, maybe, an outdated security program. Not knowing what the outdated security program is presents a problem when attempting to answer the question. (Although, I must say, I've never seen outdated security programs cause issues... but I haven't used each and every security program out there, so, yeah, it is a possible source of your problem.) More data, please. Lang |
