G780 laptop keeps freezing

Hi can anyone help me ? My lenovo G780 laptop keeps freezing its a Pentium CPU B2.10 GHz with 4.00 gb ram and 64 Bit operating system windows 7, it is only just over a week old so no other programs are installed only windows 7,
When I say freezing I mean the computer freezes and I have to turn it off by holding the on /off button as the keyboard wont work either.

It will freeze almost immediatlly when I turn on the laptop.
Does it occur before Windows begins to load?
If so, software on the hard drive is not responsible.

My laptop keeps freezing when i start it up

I posted this on my phone, by the way, since I couldn't even open up Google Chrome without my laptop freezing.

For some apparent reason, my laptop keeps freezing right when I start it up. When I type in my password and my desktop screen comes up, I try to go to control panel to uninstall an adobe software I had downloaded but caused my laptop to lag (I downloaded it from the adobe website, itself). But right when the control panel windows comes up, and I try to move my mouse around a bit (I use an external mouse thing), my laptop freezes right there. I tried to go to McAfee to scan for viruses just in case but it froze when the windows came up as well. I tried doing the ctrl + shift + esc thing and I don't think anything's going wrong but when the window comes up and I move the mouse around a bit, my laptop freezes. Nothing's overheating and dusty or anything. And no matter how many times I tried to force shut my laptop down by holding the power button until it turns off, it still freezes every time. Someone please help me troubleshoot this.

My laptop keeps freezing mainly during youtube videos, I'm not really sure what to do.

My laptop keeps freezing- help!

ok, my laptop keeps freezing. it's a toshiba satellite l305-s5907. It has been run through every type of virus, malware, registry cleaning scan available, and it still happens. it seems to happen after the computer goes to screen saver mode, when trying to exit screen saver mode it freezes. i'm sure i just have some sort of setting out of whack. i've tried changing screen savers to no avail. i've also tried to reinstall the power management program in windows vista (i have the 64 bit). it's like when i try to turn the computer back on, it's in a sleep mode that it won't come out of. i can feel the fan running and the hard drive spinning, but there is no light at all on the screen, and the only way to get it back on is to hold down the power button and shut it off, then turn it back on. please help!

it boots everything loads up on desk top...and it freezes after few seconds
Maybe this is a lame reply too. Try these two experiments and let us know if it happens.
1. Boot into Safe Mode.
Start your computer in safe mode
2. Boot into another user account. If necessary, create one.

Laptop keep freezing up since new

I bought a new Toshiba laptop Satellite Model A665-S6070 3 months ago that keeps locking up. At first it was gradual, but lately its been doing it constantly. The only way to get out of it is to shut down laptop and restart. I took it to Best Buy and they verified it in Reliability Manager that it has been doing it since new. They say it not hardware but software issue and they want $200 to fix. I have downloaded Bios update and N driver display update and it still does it. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Wow,
I wonder why it is that when someone wants a real answer and experiences from users as to why an Apple product doesn't work, there is usually an iCult member who somes to the defense of Apple as if being a disciple of God :-) That's not a slander. It's meant to be part truth, part humor.
Brody, your other answers are great and what I was wanting to hear about. However, I can see you get too defensive about your favorite company.
I'm not looking for a lecture on why Apple is so wonderful. I sincerely want to know the things I should look out about when buying an iMac and to hear solutions to problems form users with issues. I would not be so hesitate about buying an iMac if it weren't for my current issues with iTunes freezing and crashing on multiple computers, an iPhone4 that doesn't work in speakerphone mode, and an iPad coming dead on arrival (rare I understand). I've been an electronics system designer for more decades than you might think, so I am not dumb about equipment.
Now before anyone jumps to conclusions, I am not a proponent of Windows or any other specific competitive company. Every product has its issues and advantages. But let's get the fact right. Apple is not the most valuable computer company on earth because of the "machines". If they were, then they would own that market. They don't. They got to be so successful because of the nice selection and decent design of many various products and services (and at a high price too). Apple does some really clever things, but also some dumb things as well. I'm looking to avoid the dumb things.

What does it mean if my Mac Pro laptop keeps freezing?

My laptop has been freezing a lot lately; especially locks up when using Microsoft applications (word, excel) but also freezes when online. What would cause this?

It's rather difficult with the information provided, it could be network related issue, a router issue, a Mac issue or a software issue.
Your going to have to procced in a process of elimination to try to narrow down the cause.
Can you further describe the freezing? Do you get a spinning beachball only on the Internet or if totally disconnected too?
You can look through these user tips of mine

Satellite L300 keeps freezing

My laptop keeps freezing ... it doesn't always happen, but it's started happening regularly over the past few weeks, where all programs stop responding and I can't open Task Manager, so the only thing to do is to turn the power off.
I tried restarting in Safe mode, and did a System restore, which seemed to work temporarily, but it started happening again, and even doing another restore hasn't fixed the problem. My laptop is only 8 months old and has up-to-date Norton antivirus running; I've done comprehensive virus scans but haven't picked up anything. The freezes don't seem to be brought on by any particular software - they just happen randomly, sometimes after an hour or two, sometimes not at all, and sometimes quite soon after I start the computer.
I've also run the Toshiba Assist PC Diagnostic tool which came with the computer, and that didn't pick up any problems with the hardware. It seems likely to be a software rather than a hardware problem, but I can't think of anything I've installed recently that would cause any issues, and also the fact that no program in particular brings on the freezes makes it hard to determine what the problem is.
Other than the Diagnostic tool, the system restore and running Norton, I don't know what to do!
My system is a toshiba satellite L300, running Vista Home Premium SP1, core 2 duo 2.00GHz processor, with 2GB RAM.
Any suggestions??
Thanks!

Hi
First of all I recommend removing the Norton Antivirus because this tool needs a lot of hardware resources and slow downs the system.
Instead of Norton you could use the Avira Antivir.
This software is free and can be downloaded from different pages. I use this too and Im really satisfied.
Furthermore you should check if such freezing are not related to the high temperature.
You could clean the ventilators using compressed air spray. It will help you to remove the dust from the cooling fans and grilles.
Check it!

Mac os Lion keep freezing

Its been more than 2 weeks my Laptop keeps freezing for 3-5 seconds. Especially when i m using Firefox, Itunes and VLC player. I cant take it anymore, Please help....
Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search.
Step 1
Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
Step 4
ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
You can then quit Terminal.

It is not easy to say why this happen but I think it is definitely software related issue.
I don't know how many experience do you have with operating systems and are you ready to search for problem or you want to fix this quickly.
If you want fast fix use Toshiba recovery disc and install OS again. With clean preinstalled operating system everything should be OK again.
Otherway follow instructions I found on the internet:
I have few steps here that might fix the issue.
First, I suggest that you boot the computer in safe mode and check; safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not run in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed, follow the steps to boot the computer in safe mode with networking:
A.) To restart the computer in Safe Mode, restart the computer and tap the F8 key for about four to five times. You will see Safe Mode listed in the Windows Advanced options. Select Safe Mode and then press enter.
Now check if you are able to work with your programs, if you are able to boot the computer in safe mode then the problem might be with any of the start-up items conflicting on your computer.
B.) You may have to perform clean boot on the computer, to help troubleshoot error messages and other issues, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This kind of startup is known as a "clean boot." A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
The following link has steps showing how to perform clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
1) Perform clean boot (Check the link for Performing clean boot)
2) Enable half of the services
3) Determine whether the problem returns
4) Enable half of the startup items
5) Determine whether the problem returns
6) Repeat the above steps until you find out which service or program is causing the issue
After you determine the startup item or the service that causes the problem, contact the program manufacturer to determine whether the problem can be resolved. Or, run the System Configuration Utility, and then click to clear the check box for the problem item.
Note: Please ensure that the computer is set to start as usual by following the step 7 from the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
If the issue still persists, I suggest that you perform a System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer, this replaces corrupted system files with the Version of Windows system files on the computer, follow the steps to perform a scan:
I would suggest you to empty the temp folder and later follow the steps below:
i. Click Start>>type %temp% in the search box>>press enter>>delete everything present in the temp folder.
1. Click Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box.
2. Right-click cmd in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click Continue
3. At the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER: sfc /scannow
When the scan is complete, test to see whether the issue that you are experiencing is resolved.

My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) keeps freezing, the fan becomes extremely loud and the laptop gets very hot, what can I do?

Hi there,
I would be grateful if any one could help me. I purchased my MacBook Pro 13 Inch in August 2011, it was the "Early 2011" version, which was shipped with Lion (I have now upgraded it to Mountain Lion last year).
Up until a few weeks ago, it was running fine. But recently my MacBook keeps freezing (A circular rainbow appears on the cursor), slowing down, the fan gets very loud and I often have to restart the whole machine. This usually happens when I'm running programs such as Safari, Preview or Microsoft Word
I only use my MacBook for university work so I only have Microsoft Office and iWork installed, nothing else. I've only used 19gb out of the 320gb available. I've also reseted my MacBook to its factory settings but that hasn't fixed the problem.
I've checked my AppleCare status and it says:
Repairs and Service Coverage: Active
Your product is covered for eligible hardware repairs and service under a custom agreement.
For more information about your coverage, please contact us.
Estimated Expiration Date: 24 August 2014
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to how I can resolve these problems, as it is stopping me from doing my work?
Many thanks.

Call Apple and make a appointment, backup your use data off the machine to a external drive.
Don't bother with TimeMachine if it asks, too long and likley be corrupted and unable to restore, just drag and drop your Users folder to the external drive.
