What causes the Computer to FREEZE on me while in use?? Got any solutions? ?

Answer 1

It's usually from conflicting Video Drivers. Your graphics card drivers are probably not liking certain Video Softwares that you might be using. Try reinstalling your video drivers. That may fix it for a while. Do you have multiple graphics cards? if so, only use ATI with ATI and Nvidia with Nvidia.

Answer 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.

Answer 4

it's the kind of programs your run on your machine.

This is the case, when you have a lot of programs or softwares installed on your machine they will need more memory to run, if you add more memory to your machine it will run  faster depending on the size inserted.

But in another case, you can remove programs you donot use often, perform disk cleanup, clear history, saved forms e.t.c. of browser

update your antivirus and antispyware and perform full scan of your machine.

check your local disk properties and make sure the free space (capacity) is more a gig incase of update files or backup operators

This is will keep your machine back to track.

Hope this is cuul
