Most laptops freeze because of the number of unnecessary programs installed within the system as they are wasting a big part of your disk space, so uninstall them quickly or reduce them. If the cable that connects the hard drive to the motherboard is damaged or not working, then you could see these kinds of issues while Windows is loading – including freezing, stopping, and reboot loops. Open the back of the laptop, remove the RAM, clean it with care and place it back.

Check for install updates for your antivirus software. If you have multiple antivirus solutions installed, uninstall all but one. This is particularly common if your antivirus software is out of date, or if you are running more than one antivirus software on your PC at the same time.

Antivirus software can sometimes contribute to performance problems in Windows. Malware software may also cause random hangs and other performance problems in Windows. Open the task manager and see if a program is listed as “not responding.” If there is one, click that program title and click “end task.” Also, you can turn off your pc by using the power button. This may unfreeze the computer, or bring up an option to restart, shut down or open the task manager. The best and easy way to unfreeze your PC/laptop is to press and hold the “Ctrl”, “Alt” and “Del” buttons in that order.
