Edge 15 freezing and programs hang

Any ideas why? The core temp isnt that high (46C as I type) theres no virus/trojan/spyware/other in the system. No background programs running.
It happens at random, un freezes (eventually)
All MS/Lenovo updates are installed.
W7/AMD P340 Dual Core/2 gig RAM/ATI HD4250
TIA

hey mr_onion,
could you remember when this specifically start? was it after installing a software or when you first got your unit ?
also, i would like you to set in msconfig so that the unit will load windows-based items on the next reboot.
i believe that there might be some program running in the background that is causing this to occur.

  • Firefox 7 hangs a whole lot in the past several weeks. I can hardly get through typing an email without it freezing and making me have to kill the program and start over.

    I am using firefox 7, windows 7 pro, 64 bit machine.
    If I am typing an email I never know if I can finish because it often freezes and I cannot get the mouse to do anything. I have to hit "control-alt-delete" and stop firefox and sometimes the process and then start over. Also firefox is consuming a lot of cpu resources
    (over 110,000k and sometimes near 200,000k). Is that normal?

    We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
    #Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
    #Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and paste them into your response here.

  • Acrobat on Mac OS X Yosemite Freezes and Hangs Constantly

    I am so frustrated with my Acrobat Pro performance that I'm seriously considering moving to something else to manage/edit PDF files.
    I have a pretty new 27-inch iMac with plenty of memory, which had a clean install of Yosemite (not migrated from another computer) last spring. I loaded Acrobat on it, and ever since, I've had problems with freezing, unexpected closing, and general slow performance.
    In particular, nearly any time I select text, I get the rainbow ball for a second or two after I've let off the mouse, and sometimes I have to click again to get the application to respond again and get the text selected. The program crashes ALL THE TIME, and it hangs on other tasks besides selecting text.
    I've tried the "reduce the number of recent files" trick, which did nothing (except make it exceptionally annoying to use Acrobat, since I actually use the "recent files" function a lot to get back into whatever project I was working on).
    What else can I do???? It's driving me crazy!!!!
    Details:
    Acrobat version 11.0.10 • Build 11.0.10.32
    Mac OS X 10.10.2
    32 GB 1600 mhz DDR3 RAM

  • PE7 Memory Issues and Program Freezes Editing AVCHD

    I am suffering recurring "low system memory" warnings and program freezes and "bombs" when trying to edit AVCHD video clips captured from my Sony HDR-S11 hard drive camcorder.
    I just bought a brand new computer specifically for these editing chores. The system I have is WELL above the minimums specified in the PE7 documentation. I am running Win XP SP3 (clean installation on a 500 GB hard drive), Intel 9400 quad core processor, Asus P5KSE ATX motherboard, 4 GB of RAM, ATI Radeon 3600 video card with 512 MB on-board processing, etc. I have installed only minimal software on the computer, intending to dedicate it primarily to Blu-Ray video processing.
    My current project is about 1 hour and 27 minutes long. I have tried editing with both the "hard drive camcorder" and "AVCHD" full-HD presets for the project. While the AVCHD preset produces clearly better results - at least initially - by the time I reach approximately 1 hour into the import of my video clips to the Sceneline, problems begin to occur. They are usually manifested as a warning dialog box informing me that I am running low on system memory and should save my project and proceed with caution. I save what I was doing and then try to "cautiously" continue with the editing. If I click and hold on the taskbar slider to move either forward or backward in the Sceneline, I almost always get a hang-up of the program wherein it will not react to any keyboard or mouse inputs. If I persist, sometimes the program will momentarily revive but further attempts to edit often result in a spontaneous shutdown of the program wherein PE7 abruptly closes and I am taken directly to my desktop.
    And during the times that I am able to edit, I have encountered the same kind of glitchy previews of my AVCHD source data that many others have reported on these forums. In scanning those threads, it looks like we are all out of luck on that one until Adobe comes out with an upgraded version of PE7.
    I have worked through the Help Section procedures "Troubleshooting system errors and freezes in Premier Elements 7 (Windows XP)" with no improvement. Many of those checks do not apply to me since I basically started with a blank hard drive. I have no old codecs loaded. I have the latest drivers for my motherboard and video card. I don't have any fonts installed that did not come with Windows or PE7. I uninstalled and reinstalled PE7. My virus software (McAfee) is up to date and I performed a total system scan with no findings. Nothing has really helped me to be able to do stable and reliable edits of my source clips.
    This is especially frustrating because I used PE4 for more than a year and NEVER had any freezes or bombs when editing HDV clips from my previous Sony HDR-HC1K taped-based HD camcorder. I thought that creating a capable video-dedicated computer would insure that I wouldn't have problems like these with AVCHD. Looks like I was mistaken again.

    I couldn't agree more about the basic non-functionality of PE7 when it comes to handling large AVCHD projects, David. We were both taken in by our previous favorable experiences with earlier versions of PE.
    My original problem came with a project similar to your own: lots of smalll files (clips) that added up to a large total project. The problems with memory shortfall occur when you pull a large number of clips from the Media window down to the project line. I had no trouble getting my 552 individual clips downloaded from my camcorder to the "Get Media" window. It was only when I dragged them down into my Sceneline that the wheels started to come off. With a great deal of patience and several reboots, I got my 552 clips loaded into my project but got into immediate and deep trouble when trying to edit the raw footage into final form. Apparently PE7 juggles the huge (in my case about 18 GB) file every time you try to do an edit and the manipulation of the big file is what eats up the memory.
    As pointed out by earlier posts, AVCHD is efficient as a compression format for the raw video files but is extemely processor and memory-intensive when you try to edit a file with a lot of individual clips.
    I certainly didn't know that I was biting off such a big piece of new technology when I bought my new Sony AVCHD camcorder. I don't think the shortcomings of AVCHD are very widely appreciated except by people who have confronted them head-on as you and I have done.
    I fear that the solution for these difficulties will be beyond the scope of a patch by Adobe. Both you and I are using what should be a near-state-of-the-art computer with appropriate hardware and we are barely able to work on an AVCHD project. And, yes, converting your project files to MPEG format is a key part of a semi-workable solution.
    The multiple project export method that I outlined above is unquestionably "cheesy" as you suggest but some vatiation on it is about the best you are going to do with AVCHD in PE7 for the foreseeable future.

  • Equium A100-306 freezes and hangs

    My laptop uses to freeze and hang, I have done windows recovery and reinstalling the windows for 2 times. At the moment the problems are:
    The system is very slow, takes ages to come up.
    When I use voice chat, laptop freezes and hangs.
    Please give me an advise what I should do.

    Hi
    If you want to have faster start up check which processes and applications start with OS and disable all of them you do not need. The start up time will not take so much time as before. Here some useful tips:
    Spyware and adware can significantly slow startup. If your notebook is taking long time to launch, it could be because of spyware or adware. It is recommended to use some anti-spyware/adware program.
    Another possible reason your notebook startup is slow: too many installed programs on it, many of which have components that must be launched at startup. Removing unwanted programs will help improve startup performance. To remove a program in Windows XP, select Start, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs, select the program you want to delete, and click Remove. Unfortunately, programs must be removed one at a time. If in doubt, don't delete.
    Windows system tray, located in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen, contains small icons for programs that automatically start with the OS and run in the background and they slow your notebook's startup.
    Some system-tray-resident programs let you disable their automatic startup routine. Place your cursor over a program icon you don't think you need to start up automatically and right-click. Select Open, Options, Preferences, or something similar and look for an option that enables the program to automatically start with Windows. Disable the option. The changes should take effect when you restart. If you need those programs you can launch them from the Start menu when they're needed.
    Some applications automatically place a shortcut icon in the Startup folder to ensure they launch with Windows. You can put a stop to that. Right-click the Start button and click Explore. Windows Explorer launches with the Start menu selected by default. Click the plus sign next to Programs and click Startup. Shortcut icons will be listed in the right-hand pane. If you're sure you don't need any of the programs to launch automatically, delete or remove the shortcuts from there and then restart your notebook.
    Not all programs install an icon in the system tray and run in the background--and yet, they still start up automatically with Windows. You can use Windows' System Configuration Utility to stop programs and tasks from starting up automatically.
    Click Start > Run > Type "msconfig" > Choose the Startup tab. Remove the checks from any tasks you want to prevent from automatically launching. Click OK. You'll need to restart for changes to take effect. Click Restart and Windows XP will restart with only the system services and applications running resulting in a very fast logon / startup.
    This tweak will disable all non-system startup services and applications so if you have anything you want to run in the background such as anti virus software do not disable that item.
    About freezing I can not tell you much. Which voice chat application you use?

  • My itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
    I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!

  • Programs freezing and Force Quit won't help.

    I guess my problems started with the time freezing in the menu bar. Though that doesn't seem to be a problem now, it could just be because I have to keep restarting my computer.
    Here's the current problem:
    Last Sunday programs would randomly freeze and the only way to get them going again would be to force power down the computer, which I have to do by shutting the power to the power strip that also powers my external HD. Why, you ask? Because if I do it just by holding the power button the external HD won't mount. Have to shut them both down.
    As of Sunday I had all software up to date, but after coming to the boards and seeing others having problems after the last updates I decided to go back to a previous version.
    After restoring from Time Machine to a date before the I updated to 10.5.2 I discovered my external drive had been corrupted.
    I then had to start over and restore from the very first back up made in Dec. That worked and I got my computer back BUT then had to save what I could from the Time Machine back ups between then and now then erase the drive.
    When I did I used the "zero out" option. Got that back up and running but I'm still having issues with not being abled to force quit and now think this week was a waste of time because the problem wasn't fixed with wiping both the internal and external HD's.
    Obviously, while I know Macs better than Windows machines I don't know all the technical stuff that needs to be done with them.
    So my current headache is that I'm trying to restore my iTunes library (should be noted I'm using an external HD to store everything due to the size of the library).
    If I don't get to it fast enough to put in the next back up disc, iTunes will freeze.
    If it freezes, I can try to force quit but all that does is close the window, not the program and gives me the option to report to Apple.
    I then have to shut down the computer using the power strip as previously stated.
    Once everything is back up, iTunes will sometimes freeze when I try to open it.
    I'm also having trouble with Safari freezing on me sometimes. I don't know about any other programs because right now I'm mostly just focused on iTunes.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this, whether it's hard ware or software related? Any solutions I might try?

    Well this problem is also happening to me, and I'm using a Lacie Big Disk Extreme 500Gb, never had any problems before but after the update 10.5.2 problem reveals all the time. After disconnecting the disk the problem is solved, but this mustn't be normal.
    Seems to be a bug in 10.5.2 as I can't imagine that Lacie disks and Maxtor disks won't be recognized anymore...
    So to reply.. this case isn't solved yet..

  • I recently dug out my old 160gb iPod Classic. Every time I connect it to iTunes, the program freezes and/or crashes. My computer recognizes that the iPod is plugged in, (it's accesible under "My Computer") but iTunes doesn't acknowledge it, at all. Help?

    I recently dug out my old 160gb iPod Classic. Every time I connect it to iTunes, the program freezes and/or crashes. My computer recognizes that the iPod is plugged in, (it's accesible under "My Computer") but iTunes doesn't acknowledge it, at all. I've tried every single solution I've seen, and none of them work. I know the Classic is outdated, but my other iPod doesn't have nearly as much room. Can anyone help with this?

  • Shortly after launching into itunes, it freezes and I get the following message: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. How do I resolve this issue?

    Shortly after launching itunes, the program freezes and gives me the following message:A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. The program then closes, even if I have not completed what I am doing. How do I resolve this problem?

    That is what I thought. Cannot figure out how to turn it off, though.
    However, when I talked to her over the phone, she is definitely using Firefox. I tried to access her Internet Explorer, but it has been deactivated, I believe by Firefox.
    She primarily uses the Internet to communicate with her kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. Her e-mail account is with Yahoo Mail, and she uses Firefox to access it. Occasionally, she uses the web to look up information, and may have downloaded a virus.
    Do you think there's something in Yahoo Mail that conflicts with Firefox? Is there some remnant of Internet Explorer that needs to be deactivated? Could she have a virus?
    Any information would be gratefully appreciated. I live 7 hours away, and can only help her over the phone. I'm trying to develop a course of action that I can use with her. I know a little bit about Firefox, so need your expertise.

  • Just upgraded to 10.7 - cannot play movies or TV programs - iTunes freezes and Windows states iTunes has stopped working and kicks me out - play audio OK, store and synching to devices OK.

    Running Windows Vista Home Premium - Service Pack2
    iTunes has always worked beautifully - opened it yesterday and said upgrade was available so I did and upgrade seemed to be successful - no errors and program launches and all my music, TV programs, Movies, etc, were there. Audio works well.  Tonight I tried to play a movie and got the Windows iTunes has stopped working and searching for solution (which there is none) and closing the warning box closes iTunes.  iTunes used to launch a "separate" black window for my movies/TV - I seemed to get  a black background before everything freezes.  Not happy.  Thanks for any help - I tried to upgrade quicktime just to make sure it wasn't lagging behind the iTunes upgrade but that didn't help.

    Let's try the following user tip with that:

  • Satellite Pro M10 freeze and crash with some programs

    Hi
    I have a Satellite Pro M10...
    a few weeks ago it's freeze and crash with some programs like wmpayer, messenger... I delivered it in the authorized agent and they had not detected no problem.
    Already I formatted it some times, but the problem continues.
    Some ideia of what it can be?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Sounds to me like you could have a Motherboard problem. Formatting it takes away the chances of it being a software issue. Try taking out 1 stick of ram and testing it with that. If it continues to crash, take out that stick and try the other one. If it does it with both RAM then those are ok. HDD is not the culprit, so now it could either be processor or MB. Find a program to measure the heat of the notebook and run some heavy programs to make it overheat. If the temperature goes up and then it crashes, it could just be overheating. If it continues without overheating you either have a problematic CPU or MB. Hope this helps.

    Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
    To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting:
    Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red.
    When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
    Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Go to his website, download and run EtreCheck:

    Etrecheck will be in your Downloads folder. Open it from there. You may see the following dialog box:
    Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
    It will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
    Copy and paste its output in a reply.
    Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or “failed” or anything else that may appear in red.
    EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
    When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.
    After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

    Do you have the same problem with printing from other apps, such as TextEdit? Have you looked at your printer's control panel to see if an error condition is displayed there, and if so, what is it?
