Vista Computer Freezing – Windows Vista Keeps Freezing, How Do I Fix It?

Posted: Jul 25, 2009 | Comments: 0 | Views: 1,971 | Bookmark and Share

Tired of your Vista computer freezing?  Want to know how to fix Vista freezing problems?  Well you have come to the right place.  Computer freezing can be a real pest to deal with.  Especially if you had been working on an important document, playing a game, or had saved information you needed.  Sometimes whatever you were working on can be lost forever.  And this can happen at random times, often completely out of the blue.  When Windows Vista keeps freezing you may get the following symptoms:

  • Vista completely freezes, not allowing you to do anything.  This forces you to have to manually restart your system, causing further damage due to improperly shutting down your computer.
  • Windows Vista locks up and shows a blue screen of death.  This causes the system to reboot, performing a physical memory dump.
  • Whatever program you are using stops working while the mouse seems frozen on the hour glass symbol.  This forces you to hit alt/control/delete to fix it.

The #1 cause of Vista computer freezing is running too many programs at once.  If this problems occurs when having too many things open then there are really only 2 solutions.  Do not run so many programs or purchase additional RAM to meet specific requirements.

If Windows Vista keeps freezing and the problem is not running too many programs, then the issue lies in the registry.  The Windows Vista registry controls information to run all software programs and hardware devices.

Often times the registry becomes congested with corrupt files and errors which inhibits your computers ability to communicate effectively.  When your system cannot communicate it freezes up.

The only way to fix Vista freezing in this case is to scan your computer for registry errors.  I recommend download top flight software that can automate the process for you.  This way you will not only stop Vista computer freezing, but also prevent it from happening in the future.
