WTF, my computer keeps freezing up!!

[JG1]

This shit juts started last night. Everytime I enter a website in the address bar then click go, the damn computer freezes up. Control, Alt, delete won't get my out of the freeze, so I have to hold the button in on the tower to shut it down. Happens every damn time. Now if I use the addy's listed in my "Favorites" list, it works fine and doesn't freeze up.

I tried running a Defrag, but it freezes up everytime the Defrag starts.

System specks are P3, 600mz, 320mb Ram (for some reason it only shows that I have 255mb Ram), 20 gig.

Any ideas on what could be wrong with my computer??

take it out of the freezer, that can't be good for machinery.

It probably just is a real sucky computer.

You probably have tons of ACTIVE X errors on your pc.

How do I go about removing the errors?

If we told you - we'd have to kill you.





(actually I haven't got a fucking clue!)

I would say you have too many programs running at once.Go to the Run program on your computer and type msconfig.Once your at the system configuration utility,go to start -up and disable any unessecary programs.

Just did that, and there wasn't any unessecary programs running.

This all started I think after I downloaded a pop-up killer (Thanks GS!) from http://www.panicware.com/ . I couldn't get the damn thing to work, so I just deleted it, but know my computer keeps freezing up.

re-install windows?

Did you check the system resources? You should be at 85-90% for everything to run smoothly.

JG,

Does this freeze only happen when you are using your internet browser? Also, what Operating system are you running? There is a great program called Anti-Crash that intercepts freezes and crashes... get it from... http://www.dachshundsoftware.com

Get crack from http://www.cracks.am/d.x?4212 .

I think your browser is having a problem.. are you still running the pop up killer?

Hope that helps!

Oh, also... I highly recommend running an anti-virus program... like Norton Antivirus, if you aren't already.

i think the best thing would probably be a windows re-install. i don't think defragmenting the HD is going to fix the problem, but if you want to try it and it keeps locking up when you try to degrag hit ctl-alt-del and make sure all programs except explore and systray are closed. One you do that you should be able to defrag without lockup.
It sounds like you may have deleted a necessary file when you deleted pop-up stopper since your problems began occurring after that.
Again, i think the best thing would be reformat the HD and do a complete fresh windows re-install. Should fix your problems. good luck.
