Finlay Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I all, I have a problem on my Windows Vista that began afetr the purchase of an external Hard Disk Freecom. A few days afetr the purchase I disconnected it while it was writing and, since that moment, every time I connect and disconnect it, the PC go to freeze mode for 5 minutes. The same thing happen even if the hard disk is disconnected: every time I start windows it go to freeze a little after the password, and every time I connect and disconnect a usb device. I have looked for the solution everywhere, updated windows, unistalled and installed the hard disk from the device manager but I solved the problem only when I restored a recent backup. Yesterday the Hard disk was writing a backup while Vista was installing the updates; at the end of the proceure windows restarted automatically and the problem began again!!! The Pc go to freeze when it starts, every time I connect or disconnect the hard disk, an usb earphone that has always worked switch on but there is no audio and I don't know how many others usb devices will have problems. Has anyone an idea to solve this problem before I throw out of the window Vista or the the hard disk? Thank you __________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANEMAN Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Hi There,Dependent on computer type and manufacturer, you may have a "Restore Disk" with which you will be able to set your computer back to "Factory settings."Failing this you could try "The Windows Vista Repair Disk" Which you can make yourself or download from the internet.Before you start on any such stages, do remember to make a backup of your data (Music, photos, documents,etc.)How to make a Vista repair disk is **Here**Information on how to download and burn a repair disk is **Here**Because you have failed to include you computer type or model in this post I cannot guide you through the "Back to Factory Settings" procedure that may be available to you.However **This Page ** or visiting the manufacturers web page should give you all the information you need.

NonitoAV Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I think you need to clean your Windows registry, defrag your disk and getting rid of cached information to what any problem happen on your PC.best opinion tool is pc health advisor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
