Hello @Stellafaye,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that your notebook locks up and freezes. I will try to assist you with this issue.
I recommend starting with this document: Computer Locks Up or Freezes (Windows 8).
Please try the steps provided and let me know how you make out.
If you require further assistance after this, could you provide the Model and Product numbers please.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
I worked on behalf of HP.

  • My brand new iMac keeps freezing, how can I fix this?

    I have only had my iMac for about a month and it freezes all the time. I can move the mouse but can't click on a thing. Does anyone know any possible solutions?

    I have had this happen to me twice in the past week. Right now is the 2nd time. I  can't click on anything on my computer. I have tried with my Wacom tablet and even plugged in a mouse ( my normal one is bluetooth). The last time the only thing that worked was rebooting with the startup dics and running utilities, but it has only been a week and it has happened again. The catch is that the first time it happened I was running Snow Leopard, but I upgraded to Lion several days ago. What the heck is going on with my iMac and how can i fix it? Can I still use the startup disc that came with the computer even though I now have Lion?

  • 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.

  • 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,

    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- 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.
       Create a user account
    PS None of us helping out here work for Toshiba. I don't even have access to one.

  • My windows 7 keeps freezing randomly

    Hi I know there were similar questions asked, but I already tried some things like registry cleaning software, and freezing still keeps comming back so I feel like I need a specific and interactive help.
    So my windows freezes from time to time, today it was every couple minutes while browsing internet through firefox mostly, and single freeze takes from several seconds to minutes.
    Right here for a similar problem I've found suggestion to collect minidump files:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/b9c932b4-5926-4f92-b186-c4f90bb86583/windows-7-keeps-freezing-randomly?forum=w7itproperf
    I can do it too, if there is someone here to listen :) and will further help me continue solving this. Thanks.
    Tom

    Ok, so I got some freezes just moments ago and went to collect minidump files. When I tried this:
    Click “Start”, type “%SystemRoot%\Minidump" (without quotation marks) in “Search” bar and press “Enter”.
    ...it found no elements matching.
    Yesterday I've done everything like suggested here:
    1. Click "Start", input "SYSDM.CPL" (without quotation marks) in the “Search” bar and press “Enter”.
    2. Switch to the "Advanced" tab and click the "Settings" button under "Startup and Recovery".
    3. Under "Write debugging information" section, make sure the "Small memory dump (128KB)" option is selected.
    4. Make sure "%SystemRoot%\Minidump" is in the "Small dump directory" open box and click “OK”.
    ...except where it sais 128kb I had only option 256kb
    so what is going on?  no minidump folder under my windows folder...

    How do I get rid of adobe's "improve our products" popup window which keeps freezing CS6?

    In theory it would have to come up at least once and then you could choose yes/no. You can also choose that when you install it, so try to reinstall to put the respective configuration in place.

    I have the 1st ipad 3G wifi cell 64g and it keeps crashing how can I fix this ?
    I have restored network settings and cleared history etc ..

    Try closing all apps and reboot the iPad. Clear Safari again as well.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
