when i'm doing anything. it has hung twice just tring to write this question
it hangs even when the computer is idle. and the only solution that works so
far is to hit the reset button

Hi,

Run the memory diagnostic tool, you may have a faulty stick. To do so, just
type "memory diagnostic" into the start/search line and the tool will be in
the program listing. Select it, and follow the prompts for the test to run
on a system restart. At the end it will reload Vista and give you a report
as to the condition of your memory.

I have the same problem... on idle VISTA hangs. I have run memory
diagnostics and there were no problems posted. My systems hangs usually once
or twice a day (randomly).
My System: HP DV6700 Laptop.
Windows Vista Home Premium (SP1)
Intel Duo CPU [email protected] GHz
4.00 GB Ram
Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
