Boot the computer to safemode with networking, open some programs and see if freezing occurs in this mode. Do not surf the internet in this mode, your Anti Virus will not be running.

To boot into safemode with networking.
Restart the computer during restart keep tapping the F8 Key this should result in the Windows Advanced Boot options Menu (Black screen with white letters.) Use the arrow keys on the keyboard and select "SafeMode With Networking" now hit enter.
Let the computer boot into safemode with networking, use the computer and see if it freezes.

Let me know.

Hey Joe, I can't boot in safe mode with networking.  Each time I try, I get a blue screen that says a problem has been detected and windows is shutdown, or something like that. Then I have to kill the power to try again.   Now I can't post when going to the internet.  It freezes after getting to this page.  I'm posting from a laptop. Any ideas?

What is the make and model ? Desktop or Laptop ?

Are you comfortable moving Ram around ?

Are there 2 Ram Memory modules installed ?, if so, can you take one out and try running with only 1 stick of ram, I'm thinking we could have a ram issue and trying each stick separately.

Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,

 

The machine is a Dell Inspiron 530 PC.  I've never moved Ram around but willing to try with directions.  How do I check if there are two sticks or Ram.  Also, I don't recall running Threatrack.  I use Viper.   Any help would be appreciated.  I'm at the point I can't do anything with the PC because it freezes every time now.

First,
Tell me if this is your computer,


The guy in the video is pulling out ram, you can see there are 2 ram cards, what I want you to do is pull out 1 Ram card and try the computer with just 1 card.

Is that your computer ?

Hi Joe,

 

Yes, that is my computer.  I pulled one RAM card and it seems like the computer no longer freezes.

 

I pulled a Hynix 1GB 1Rx8 PC2-5300U-555-12 HMMP112U64CP8-Y5 AC-C.  The other RAM card is the same that is currently installed. 

 

Should I replace one or both cards with more RAM to increase speed and eliminate freezing?

Yes the other ram card should be the same and that is important keeping it all the same. Be careful how you handle ram. Handle it like a light bulb. RAM is also static sensitive always discharge yourself before going into the computer or anytime you touch RAM module. You discharge yourself by touching a doorknob.

I'd replace both cards keeping them the same, from the same manufacture etc.

(RAM) is one of the quickest, most efficient and most cost-effective ways to boost performance.

Scan for ram Here

It looks like you can put 4GigBytes of RAM in that motherboard, 32Bit windows will however only be able to utilize about 3.2Gigbytes. That's how mine is set up.

See what crucial says when you scan. Link provided above.

Thanks
Joe :)
