Windows 7 professional x64 stucks while booting on ASUS A52J laptop
Hello.
I have new laptop, ASUS A52J, i3 processor, 4 GB of memory, 640 GB hdd and so on.
It runs legal Windows 7 professional, x64 system and it usual memory usage after booting is around 40% as I have many applications loaded on boot (Skype, MSN, Hamachi, Avast, MSE, and few other utilities...)
It worked perfectly for few months, though it needed minute or 2 to completely load and boot, those few minutes were acceptable in every way.
Suddenly, I don't know why, when I turn on the laptop, type password and desktop appear it just stucks at that point. Anything I do in that 15 mins and sometimes more causes laptop to completely freeze. I cant even invoke task manager.
Its completely frustrating see this quite good configuration struggling to load and boot windows.
From your experience is this windows issue? Can this be connected with some recent windows 7 updates? Also, I checked memory with windows memory diagnostic tool seeking for some memory issues, but it whole test passed for several times without errors. I did repair using windows 7 DVD but this didn't solve the problem.
Avast free AV, Microsoft Essentials and Malwarebytes (all newest versions and updated ) didn't report any malware/virus/trojan on the system.
Can I suspect some faulty hardware on brand new laptop?
What are your suggestions?
Ty all in advance.
