  1. Your motherboard and/or heatsink are messed up.




  2. There a several reasons why your computer is freezing. First question is when was the last time you cleaned your registry. Having a corrupted registry can cause a whole host of errors and problems. Freezing up is one of them. If you have a lot of unnecessary registry keys that are hogging up your computer resources. Your computer is bound to choke. Scan your registry with a good registry cleaner. If you pull up more than 20 errors or duplication, clean your registry.

    2. Depending on your RAM specs and your computer usage. This could also be a the issue. Having an insufficient amount of free space does not allow your RAM to function properly. If you are using a lot of RAM by net surfing or other activities without enough empty space your will get freezes. You don't need to buy new RAM but you should increase your free space by removing unnecessary data and perhaps increasing your virtual memory. The below link will show you how.

    3. Spyware could be the culprit, so do a scan and see if your computer is infected.  

    4. That last area is a hardware drivers. This could be the problem if new hardware has been added to the system. So, the drivers should still be up to date. So try the first two suggestion and see if you can get your computer to stop freezing.

    Check your drivers. Hope this helps.

  3. If it comes up with an error, usually it's a hardware or application issue.  If it just freezes out of nowhere, more times than not it's a heat problem but if it gets too hot, PCs usually shut down.  So if you can determine that heat is not a problem, start looking at any applications or hardware devices you recently installed.

    Key to troubleshooting is to figure out what is the last thing you did before the problems started.  That should give you a clue of what is causing the problems.

  5. It's most likely the amount of memory you have.  With today's systems, the absolute minimum amount of memory you should have is 1GB--however, you should aim towards 2GB or more.  If the amount of RAM you have is fine, make sure that the fan in your tower is operating properly.  Overheating can and will cause the microprocessor to malfunction.  If that's fine, then consider reducing the amount of startup programs on your system (START>>RUN type MSCONFIG and click startup tab), and also considering defraging (START>>RUN type DEFRAG C:).  Hope this helps.

  6. There are several primary areas that could be causing your computer to freeze.The most likely reason is that Corruption within your registry keys, registry classes, and registry settings.Any time you make a change to any of your computers settings and surfing online, they are stored and updated in the registry.Over time,the registry can grow to enormous proportions and full of junk and errors.So if you run a program,it will take a long time to required registry file and sometime it cant find its registry files since regsitry errors and then it has to sit there.So your computer will freeze.

    You need to run a self diagnostic program called regsitry cleaner.This program is very very useful,it can fix regsitry errors,clean registry remnant,corrupt files and temp files in a few minutes.Then give you a bran-new and high-speed computer.There are collection and comparison of top rated registry cleaner:
