How often occur the freezes? They are reproducible or random?

My iMac freezes, but I can still move the mouse
My iMac (3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, new HDD 4 TB, 12 GB of memory running 10.9.5) freezes randomly just straight up. I can't tell you how or when this happens. There is no model it. I can move the mouse, but click on anything. I am usually under Safari and Firefox when this happens, and I have a few windows/tabs open. I'm also in Word when this happens sometimes. But really, I don't test the limits of this computer so I can't understand why it would freeze upwards. I got it in the store four times and this is my third hard drive. I am currently using about 1 TB or less than my 4 to drive, it's not a question of space. Guys my computer store say it might be a software problem, but I don't see how that nothing is added or downloaded since it began. My old computer died in February, so I got an iMac refurbished with a brand new HD and the new ram. That's when the problems started. I replaced the computer with this one (another refurbished with a brand new HD) and still had the problem. Now I just got a new 4 TB HD hybrid (I love, BTW.) (Very fast), and the problem persists. Any ideas? Thank you. My computer guy say that their only idea is to wipe the drive clean and manually put items on one by one. Sounds expensive and has not guaranteed to solve the problem.
A question, if your 'computer' man an authorized Apple service provider. If it is not you, please, do not take the computer to him. Find an Apple authorized Service provider in your area, and from there take someone who is well trained and certified by Apple. If you don't know any, click Apple authorized Service Provider Locator

Hi all
I had a problem with my Macbook Air early 2015 since nearly a month. I freeze random OS experience (I'm under OS X El Capitan 10.11.4): the cursor moves and the keyboard is unresponsive, so I can't do anything at all. The only thing I can do to "unlock", it requires the laptop to restart (by turning manually him off and then back on). This problem occurs more or less one or two times a week and I didn't notice a particular task or request that I am running that may cause the gel. Usually, it happens while I'm surfing the web with Safari, but not all the time.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to solve the problem?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Satellite Pro R850-15F - freezing randomly and the fan speeds up
Hello
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro R850-15F who gave me four years in refurbished condition and so it is quite old.
I have recently installed Windows 10 and things seemed to work very well.However, last week, I noticed that at least once a day my laptop freezes randomly and immediately the internal fan accelerates, becomes much stronger and a cold air. Whenever this happens, I turned off the laptop and turn it back on it.
After that, it works normally again until the next time it freezes. I don't know anything about computer hardware, but I suspect that it is a problem of series and I wanted to get some advice in case my laptop is close to dying.
If anyone has any help or advice or suggestions to solve the problem, then I would be extremely grateful if you would contact me.
Hope to hear from someone soon,
Flashback
On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. To me, it looks like problem with some background process that as a result of extremely high CPU usage that locks the phone whole.
High CPU usage means more heat in such situation the fan starts to run a lot faster.Have you noticed this behavior with a specific action or the use of certain applications?

Screen freezes randomly (Macbook Pro retina 13 inches early 2015)
MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015)
OS X Version of El Capitan 10.11.4
Processor: Intel Core i5 at 2.9 GHz
Memory: 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
Graphics card: Intel Graphics Iris 6100 1536 MB
I bought this MacBook on the Apple store online a year ago, and I must say it has been a very reliable machine up to now. It starts way faster that any laptop I have ever used before.
However, recently to update my OS on the 10.11.4 version, my screen freezes randomly. The keyboard and trackpad are both unresponsive. Closing the cover does nothing either, since the macbook won't sleep normally as it would be. The only solution I had was to hold down the power button to force it to close. This has been extremely frustrating and made me lose valuable data too. I ran the Diagnostics of Apple and the only error seems to be the battery issue. It has been said, however, that it should not affect the performance of the computer.
If someone has encountered this problem, great tips, thank you would be much appreciated!
Hey, I bought the same macbook 6 months ago, the macbook had several recurring problems, graphic and audio glitches, what happened was, sometimes (for watching movies, or playing games) the screen went black with a red line on the left side of the screen, then after 2-3 seconds screen is returned to normal, and then there was a glitch-audio distortion that attaches after 10 seconds - 1 min.
I have tried to solve this problem, because to the 4months, 2 authorized repair shops are rendered as well an apple store, they told me that the tests have said everything was perfect, they failed to reproduce this problem, and that is probably a software problem, it wasn't, because I did everything to eliminate the risk that this was a clean install os software problem to use different browsers, readers different flash etc.
About a month and a half my macbook froze for the first time exactly like yours, frozen screen, slider became unresponsive, caps lock light insensitive, trackpad locked (didn t click), closing the screen was always on the apple logo. I did exactly what you were doing, forced to shutdown by pressing the power button.
I was furious, thinking that this is an escalation of the hardware failure and he was in awe of this next step is to "die".
The next time he "froze" again, I went to the apple store nearby with the macbook in a frozen state and demanded that they fix it, I insisted the guy writes it down and describe the exact condition of the macbook was when I took it to them, and he said that they will run tests and see When I tell him that it is the "millionth" time test you my macbook, he said, that even if the tests show nothing they will replace the logic board, we signed a "service record" who says that they will replace the logic board and the battery and for the first time that I was happy they will finally fix.
I was wrong, they called me a week later and say we took some tests and everything is ok, it was the last straw, I did not pick up the macbook and said that I will not pick up unless they fix it.
Next day I went to the store and made a big fuzz, saying: I have contacted the Ombudsman, and I'll still take legal action if they didn't fixed it the next day.
Next day I went and they had replaced the logic board so the top-case with battery.
The reason I say this is, their support at least in my case, it was terrible to the point that I preferred to throw the macbook in the trash and never look back, you can't really imagine how long it took me to convince to repair or replace, for 4months I was on the phone or online chat and was flowing like a ball from one to the other.
If you are still under warranty, go directly to the apple store and request a fix, when I say request, do not be polite, don't bite on phrases like "we will do everything, so you won't have to come back again," go aggressive mode, because at least in my case, be polite did not help, the best thing would be, when it freezes again not turn off it take it straight to the apple store.
Another thing is, I had a battery problem when running the diagnostics, whenever I gave it to them they said oh "battery is ok, sometimes the tests fail," my argument? If the tests fail how do you rely on them...
Go and demand, it is their responsibility to fix, 3 and a half months being polite is not done, I'm aggressive and stares at me in 1 week.
Good luck

S50D-a satellite freezes randomly
Hi all
S50D-A, a week ago, I bought a Satellite.
The machine freezes randomly. This happens about 6 - 8 times during a working day.
When it freezes the cursor still moves but I can not even access Task Manager. Usually it will restart after a few minutes, sometimes it will jump out of it.
The PC temporarily froze all by writing this!
This is a brand new machine and it happened since the day 1, nor the hour 1 even.
I hope you guys and girls can help.

Hello
On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why this is happening. All we has own configuration software and favorite of the BONE, and we don't know how looks like the configuration of your operating system.
Maybe did you install additional software that is running in the background?Try disabling the Windows automatic update and set it to manual control. Laptop is new and maybe a lot of downloads running in the background. Processor and HARD drive can be highlighted and the result is the gel.
Play with these settings and try to find out why this happen.

Satellite L450D keeps freezing randomly
Hello
I recently bought a L450D refurbished: Win 7 64 bit, 4 GB ram, 2.1 Ghz AMD dual core, it works much faster than my Toshiba 1 year anyway.
The problem is, it keeps freezing randomly. When this happens the screen looks like the picture in the link, mouse and keyboard are completely insensitive, but I left it and the battery is flat it beep?
So far I've only updated windows, it is the partition of Toshiba hard disk but f8 during the startup does not seem to do anything and when I tried to write the recovery disc it burned but said unable to end of file during the verification step.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you
DanHello
Mobile on the photo looks like a problem with a graphics chip.
Maybe the laptop freezes because of the high temperature of the GPU. What do you think that?
Have you noticed a higher temperature?
If Yes, try to clean the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air you should also try an update of the display.

Re: Tecra S10 and S11 freeze randomly
We have several Tecra S10 and S11. Freezing randomly during the day. Some even twice within half an hour, others spread it throughout the day.
The Tecra is all Windows 7. Some have 64 bit, others a 32-bit installation. After installation of Windows 7, we have removed additional software we don't need, like McAfee, Toshiba goodies (Assist, Tempro, etc.), Ebay, etc. After that we activatie Office 2007 and Microsoft put updated laptops. So far so good.
However, after a week or two just work in Word causes the Tecra to freeze. Same ctrl + alt + delete does not work. The Tecra should be forced to turn off the power, press and hold the power button.
Everyone recognizes these "frozen moments". It's very annoying.
It is not easy to say why this is happening.
Always it is that Office is preinstalled on almost all laptops Toshiba so I did not thing your laptops can be somewhat different.Maybe something else responsible for this?
Maybe are all connected to your business LAN and there is a problem.
Are connected external devices which can be responsible for this?
Maybe some internal software of the company is blocking something.It is not easy to say what he can be.
Have you done tests in the past to see what can be the problem?

Hello
I bought a new M200 Tablet PC January last year, and I was happy with my choice. But 3-4 months ago launched machine fo freeze randomly when running Win XP Tablet edition - from initial installation. I reinstalled using the recovery DVDs, but not pursued gel model. And for about 2-3 weeks he startet freeze every time I used windows - after using it for about 2-20 minutes...
I tried to install win2k and the latest beta2 of Vista, but Ut still freezing. - Then I made a funny discovery... It never froze when running one of these versions of win in safe mode! I can run for hours with no problems - but it's not funny to use it in safe mode all the time but...
I can't find all the topics like this here - anyone know this problem? Maybe just a hint?
BIOS version: 1.60

The Toshiba Recovery CD contains all drivers Toshiba, tools and utilities, and other patches of Microsoft Windows.
In my opinion your device freezes on the original Windows installation because Toshiba stuff was not fully installed and/or some Microsoft updates fails.
The order of the proper installation of application of Toshiba is also necessary to use the laptop without interruptions or errors.
In this case I would recommend urgent to use the Toshiba Recovery CD.You also suggested that you used the Windows Vista Beta 2 version.
I read a lot of comments here in the forum about the using Vista at the moment. Always is that this OS is not official on the market and it is not working properly because there BETA Version.
I think that we must wait for the right drivers and, finally, the version of Vista -
Satellite A660-18 freezes randomly
My Satellite A660-18 freezes randomly especially when I play games or watch video.
Also sometimes when I'm just passing the mouse. He is 1-2 times a week/2 weeks. When it happens the screen freezes but the audio on for a while and does not react to any keypress so I have to manually turn it works.I don't think it's a graphics card overheating issue, as happens sometimes in just a few minutes after I turn on my laptop and I use a cooler pad as well.
Hello
This sometimes happens, it means that you can't reproduce it, which means that it s really hard to tell what could cause this.
Theoretically, it could be just a software problem. Perhaps only the registry is damaged.
In this case, the new OS installation must be carried out.Of course it could be also related to memory: to test the RAM by using some tools such as mem86 + or similar.
Also, make sure the HARD drive; for this, you can use the tool called Drive Fitness Test.Welcome them

HP Pavilion dv7 Freeze random/Lockup
My computer freezes randomly. What is happening is that I'm doing something that I do as usual check Facebook or some other normal Web site and it just randomly freezes. I have no idea what is the cause, and he never blue screens. What happens is:
- All open windows are "reduced" (on the dock, they show also open)
- My desktop turns black and has no basis on this subject
- The mouse goes to the center of the screen
- The mouse and keyboard freeze
- and above the battery icon, there are random letters that always read "sRpIg".
Here's a picture of him. My outdoor camera does not work on my phone so it looks weird.
Thank you!

A1107 Power Down/freezing randomly
Hi all, I have a growing problem with my Tablet A1107 ICS running. It turns off randomly and it was get worse gradually, first few and far between from past but 30% to 50% and now 80% and more often. It seems also to freeze randomly, usually while charging but not always. [Edit] The gel seems to occur more often in other standby mode.
I'm handy and ingenious with research and have spent countless hours in research that has led to a few helps out. Here's what I've tried so far. The first being the cleaning my system resources thinking too much running at the time was draining the system and overload it. It certainly helped the system as it works much more fluid and effective today, but both problems persist. I tried a full factory reset via recovery mode and it looked good for a while (perhaps a day at most) but the problem arises again. The last method, I'm still in the middle of, but I don't have much hope, forever I will present anyway. It uses airplane mode since I do not use this device on a network, only on Wifi and the intelligence unit was a big eater of enormous resources for this reason. I read a lot of messages to other devices claiming that this their caused problems so I thought I'd give it a try.
Anyway, that's my conundrum, and I would greatly appreciate any help. Thank you!
[Edit] Confirmed, flight Mode has absolutely no good. It turned off this time with more than 90% battery life. Help please, this problem becomes seriously annoying.
[Edit] WOW, now it just turned off while plugged into the charger AND 98% of its power. I don't understand this. Anyone?
All theoretical now, I just took the Tablet back and got another. thread closed.

Hanging of freezing, random R61
I bought December ' 07 7742-CTO. It has Nvidia Quadro NVS 140 m, preloaded with XP Pro. Now that it is out of warranty, it has started to freeze randomly. No matter if the R61 is connected to the battery, in slow time or opportunity of the day, etc. It's typical scenario: I look at the time of Windows in the system tray and see that this is incorrect (stuck at the time of the accident), the mouse is mobile but the next click will be freeze/hang up the system. Only solution is to hard reboot. The frequency of gel is passed once / week several times / day.
Then, let me say that I have a lot of technical experience with a PC. The BIOS and drivers are all the latest news from Lenovo. All the Microsoft critical updates are applied. I scanned for viruses and malware so that scrubbed the registry. In addition, here are a few other tactics I've tried:
(1) fully tested RAM
(2) I tried different RAM
(3) traded adapters CA / CC and tried inserted battery and battery removed
(4) different hard drives
(5) AHCI, change in compatibility mode
(6) removed, inspected, and cleaned Fan-Heatsink
(7) again a thermal conductive grease on CPU and GPU
(8) PC Doctor Diagnostics on the system powered up to nothing
(9) the Nvidia and NVSC Service startup items disabled
I even tried to start diagnosis by using MSConfig and minimum startup items and it freezes again. I suspect that the NVidia NVS 140 m GPU is bad. Someone out there with similar problems?
No one answered, but the problem is solved. The R61 has thermal problems. I installed ThinkPad Fan Control, which is a part of 3rd freeware utility and to keep the Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU in reasonable time. Freeze either. Don't know why Lenovo stock in place was not able to avoid overheating, but the laptop is solid as a rock now.

Vista Ultimate x 64 freezes randomly even when you are not running applications
I feel the random system freezes from my PC. My PC Spec is below. Even if being run without applications and the system is on the desktop system will freeze randomly (can not move the mouse and the keyboard does not respond) and will force me to restart the system manually. I noticed an error message in the event viewer what cultures upward each time that this gel coming and I was wondering if you could provide me with a solution?
Filter event with the query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor' AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0 x 80041003.» Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is resolved.
I have included my PC specs and components below, but it is unlikely to be a hardware problem most of the time, even when focusing on the computer with 'memtest' etc it will not break.

Hello
Try the clean boot method, which is a process of elimination to see what could be the cause
the question. Pilots also have an influence on the performance of the system so I would update those
as well.Norton has been known to cause strange problems on some systems, so I would use the
Norton Removal Tool to check its impact. The following recommendations for free
replacements, so you have good protection while check you this. Download all
replacements before you remove Norton and install after removing and resetting.Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - click on - RUN AS ADMIN

Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
right of IE)Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x
Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
disabled - click OK
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-downloadAvast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
Finish those you don't use).
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - Home - free - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD protection, working with the other security
programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here or
Use Google to see how to remove.
http://www.prevx.com/ <-->-->
http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y <-->-->PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.aspAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
(not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
