    hello , if your laptop is freezing , u can still move the mouse (using touchpad) but u cant click on anything , it's a complete freeze except for the mouse , alt ctrl delete will not work either
    what could be the problem ???
    most of the time i get this when i sign in to msn , sometimes i sign in without freezing sometimes it freezes right when i sign in , at that exact moment, sometimes it freezes when i use firefox , it neer freezed before when i worked on a non internet related application

    Try updating your network card drivers, both wired and wireless.
