When your system freezes or hangs up are you getting any error messages? Check your Action Center to see if you have any messages there. I suspect a driver issue; but we don't have enough information. Have you checked Device Manager to see if an error shows up with your video adapter?

You will need to fill in your system specs for us to know what is in your system.

Look at usercp at top of the page and click it.

Next page, left hand side, look for system specs, proceed to fill in.

Yours may look different because you are on default theme, but usercp is still at top of the page.

Cheers.

Are you overclocking? If you are, stop.

Could be a bottleneck cause by your P4.
