I just checked into this as per Michael Solomon suggestion back on..
web pages freezes randomly on
July 12 ....I pasted his instruction below.....

Open Control Panel, open Administrative Tools, open Event Viewer, look for
errors corresponding to the crash, double click the error, the information
contained within may give a clue as to the
source of the problem. If you don't understand the information inside, the
third button down in that dialog box will copy the information,
you can then paste it into a message and post it here and maybe we can
figure out what is going on.

now I found there were 2,465 events between June 11 and July 16 my
question is this? why so many and is this normal...

I went ahead and unchecked the "automatically restart" in the System
Failure ...so now I will get a blue screen everytime one of these events
happens right??? and will be able to go from there....by the way that is so
cool.... you can go to the Help and Support Center and get some info on the
problem !!!

Wow !! I just love all this finding out and fixing problems....this is such
a great help to those of us who are willing to learn..... Thanks for all
your guidance !!!
 
Remember, event viewer doesn't only record errors, it records every thing it
is programmed to watch. If the 2465 events are errors, then I'd say you
have a problem. However, if most of these are not errors, it's nothing to
worry about. There is no normal as the viewer is governed by a lot of
things, your setup, configuration, applications you are running and your
various activities while the system is booted and virtually anything and
everything going on in the background.
 
Forgot to mention with regard to the crashes. What you have done, will only
cause the system to blue screen on errors that ordinarily would result in
such an error causing the system to restart. Not all errors do that. I
only made the suggestion to cover that possibility as the blue screen error
message may give a clue as to the source of the issue.
