Random Freeze Upon Mouse-Click

[Guest]

Hey everyone,

I love this Vista RC1 as its run on my laptop primary partition for the last
few weeks. Just recently thought it started to act up.

When I click on something (anything, IE/VNC/etc) at random intervals it
hangs for around 1-2 minutes. Mouse and keyboard "respond" but the system is
in a perpetual state of hanging until all my commands hit at the same time.

Some info on the system:
Sony VAIO VGN-S460
1.2GB RAM, Pentium 4.

This only started happening recently, so i thought it may have been an
update that did it. No luck after uninstalling it. Next I also just
recently upgraded the RAM, but after running several (hours) of tests it
turns out fine too.

Lastly, I thought the CPU may be overheating, but I don't know how to test
that at the moment. According to the taskmgr though, the CPU does not go to
100% during the "lag" but it does act as if it was.

Looking forward to anyone's help. I have WebEx if some Microsoft tech wants
to take a look at it.

Thanks,

Oh, and this is every like 5-20 minutes by the way, not everytime I click
something.
And please excuse the typos

How did you get WebEx to work?! I tried to host a meeting this AM and it
locked up loading meeting manager with 1 min left (just hung there even
though the progress bar showed 100%).

Yeah, I had to download the meeting manager in the troubleshooting section.
