This happened recently

If it matters specs are Gateway 17'- dual core - Vista Home premium-4gb ram

Yes I DL music (frostwire)


Definitely a program or application running that is causing the issues, because the PC works fine on Safe Mode. Try running a virus or 'ware checker. Also, you could try:
1. Start computer normally
2. Open the Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del)
3. Go to Processes tab
4. Check to see if any .exe files are unusual or taking up excess amounts of memory (This could help pinpoint the corrupted program/file)

if u can get to RUN .. type MSCONFIG and go to the startup tab.. maybe there is something in your startup that is making your computer freeze... unclick all the boxes there shouldnt really be anything u need running upon startup..

To add to that, running only the programs you need at start up will make your computer load soooooo much faster

well i'm about to go off to college and i wanted know whats a good laptop to purchase,btw i want something thats fast and has a good amount of ram due to the fact i plan to transfer some music and programs to it.


I would go with an HP laptop or a Dell. These laptops are usually in an affordable price range usually with more than 2GB of memory and a 350+GB hard drive. That should be enough. I'd also recommend picking up a 250 or 300gb external hard drive to back up files for college. You'd be surprised with how fast you lose files.

Start your computer and don't run any programs just yet. Hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and check the Processes Tab and check what processes are running. First check what's hogging up the most memory. Make sure there aren't any programs of the same name running multiple processes.

Can't necessarily give you a link, but try PSPiso and go to the PC Applications thread.

I been playing my albums off of winrar and it would play through my Windows Media. For some reason all of a sudden, all my music on winrar played through some old media from my mp3 that i dont use. So i uninstalled in hoping it would fix the problem. When I tried playing the music, a screen popped up from winrar with all these wierd symbols and letters not playing the music at all. Anyone know how I can get all my music / ALbums to play through windows media again ??????

I am in need of a new phone, but I already carry an mp3 player and a camera when I need it. I don't care for touchscreen but I'm still wondering if I need a full keyboard or not. Good and fast software is a must. gsm only. what should I buy?

Iversonz360: It depends...what are you going to need it exactly for?


Just to browse internet and to write papers and stuff. I dont plan on downloading games or anything of that sort but I probably do plan on downloading some basic programs like Itunes Limewire and along those lines.

On a different note, does anyone know how to download E-Books for free?! Please your help will be greatly appreciated.
