Panarchy Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hello!My vista computer (not the one I am building at the moment) has recently (as of 2 or 3 days ago) started freezing. Sometime after a few minutes on the computer, sometimes straight away & sometime only after a few hours.http://www.mediafire.com/?2ziih3u7ymm^My specs. (I'm pretty sure it's up to date, I have 7600GS Graphics Card, 80GB Harddrive, Windows Vista Ultimate)The only software that I have installed recently was about a week ago, and that was just the new version of msn (and the mess patch, and msgplus patch).Please help me out here.Thanks in advance,Panarchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 If you run the box in safe mode for awhile, does it hang then? Also, describe "hang" - does it just stop responding to keyboard / mouse input, can you not move the mouse cursor, can you ping it (or not) from another box, etc?
