Windows 7 computer hangs after a few minutes of inactivity

I have a HP G62 that uses Windows 7. When I don't use the computer, it will freeze and not allow me to do anything other than the manual switching off the computer. Restarting seems to go fine, but a few minutes of inactivity, it will freeze again. Can someone help me?

Use Norton Cleanup utility:

to make sure that it is gone.

What is your Antivirus solution now?

Can run MalwareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware (full crawls, free software) and remove any they find.

Also change your screensaver to something basic (white) and adjust the time to 20 minutes.

    My laptop has 2.0 sonoma Pentium M Centrino, 512 MB of DDR2 RAM and 256 MB ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 700 graphics card.
    I'm using the latest drivers to display on the Toshiba site. However, for example in Age of Empires III, NFS Most Wanted, GTA San Andreas and Civilization IV my grave graphics card down and crashes until I have reset my laptop.

    When I install the ATI mobility catalyst 6.1 driver it crashes again, but this time by displaying a message on VPU recover (as the graphics card no longer). Sometimes after 5 minutes of gameplay.

    Sometimes it crashes after 10 minutes or more even that I have reduce the graphics settings in the game. How can we solve this problem?

    Thank you very much...

    Hello

    Toshiba recommends to use the driver of Toshiba graphics due to overheating problems.
    Toshiba drivers are little different than the driver graphic original manufacturer s. Toshiba drivers include thermal protection and control the performance of the graphics card. This is important because the laptop cards graphics don t have own cooling as graphics cards office module.

    Well, you can try using the graphics driver omega but at your own risk

  • Computer hangs after installing windows updates...

    computer hangs after the installation of update.  Full system restore and the computer worked fine for a week. Has started having problems still... verified and automatic updates for windows have been downloaded and installed today. Confused about where to go from here. Help, please. Thank you!

    To be clear, the issue is not appeared since the updates have been installed one at a time, correct?

    KB2447568 is A compatibility view list update is available for Windows Internet Explorer 8:23 November 2010
    The KB updates a file in Internet Explorer.
    There is a small chance that Trend Micro has a conflict with the update. If this is the issue, then there would be more posts on this topic.
    This looks like a temporary glitch occurred.

    The only suggestion I would make is that when there are a bunch of updates, as there was in December, then it would be better to install the most complex by themselves.
    This would mean that changing setting Windows updates for "download updates for me, but let me choose whether to install them.
    For example, the cumulative update for Internet Explorer, KB2416400, would be installed last, and by himself.

    And, since you pick a time to install updates that have been previously downloaded, then you can install them in groups of 4 and If it is another problem caused by them or their installation, you will be able to refine specific update was the cause.

  • Toshiba Canvio Stor.E 1 TB 2.5 "great copy hangin out after a few minutes

    Hello

    I just bought the Toshiba 2.5 "Stor.E Canvio 1 TB on a Windows 7 Thoshiba laptop.
    Whenever I do a great copy, after a few minutes, the copy blocks.

    The process explore hangs, it cannot be killed and the only solution is to disconnect the usb port and plug it back.

    How would I fix this?

    Thank you
    Alex

    Hello

    Theoretically, it could be a HARD drive problem.
    Would be interesting to know if the other HARD drive does the same thing

    However Stor.E Canvio is a HARD USB 3.0 drive and it takes min 900mA to operate correctly.
    It might be possible that not enough power provided by the USB port.
    You can try to plug an external USB hub between the laptop and the HARD drive to verify functionality.
