hi what exactly happens when you say your pc
freezes up?
does it go black screen? does the mouse pointer freeze up too?
if so that is a very bad pc crash .
only way around it is to try pressing ctrl shift alt del keys on your keyboard.
or try turning the power off at the wall then back on.
other than that if u have a start up disk it may help.
they are bootable...
be sure to backup all your files ! before restoring
hope this helps
email me back ok
