Hi there. I own an Acer Aspire 7551G Laptop running Windows 7 64-bit.
Since using it, it has consistently given me trouble. It will freeze every 5-10 minutes and hang for about 2-3 minutes, at random. Please help me fix this, as I am at my wits end.
Thanks.

Hi,

The first thing that springs to mindisNorton can be a bit of a resource hog - to test if this is the cause of your issue, I'd suggest uninstalling it and replacing it with MSE. If this doesn't cure the issue, you can install it back again,

Regards,
Golden

Uncheck all of those Startups except MSE and gadgets/stickies if you use them. Do the same in msconfig>Services after ticking box to Hide All MS Services. Reboot and check back to see if any sneak back in and turn them off in their Program Prefs.

If this isn't sufficient, run CCleaner "Run Cleaner" button follow by Puran free boot-time defragger.

Then work through these other basic Troubleshooting Steps for Windows 7

Are you still running the Acer factory pre-install. If so consider a Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7
