My brand new Dell laptop also has a freezing problem. It seems to mainly happen with media player or if I adjust the volume in the taskbar. I called Dell Technical Support and they did a remote access, which seemed to work, but then a few days later, the same freezing problem occured. I called Dell again, and they suggested that it might be the automatic updates that were causing problems, so I disabled these updates. But then, a few days later, the computer played up again. I had to call them for a third time, and they told me to restore the computer back to the original factory settings. After doing this, the computer froze yet again, so I got back on the phone and was told to restore the factory settings again. When this still didn't work, they told me to re-install Windows 7, which not surprisingly, still didn't solve the problem. Today I called Dell for the SIXTH time, and they told me that they're going to send a technician to my house to replace the motherboard as well as several other parts. This technician will supposedly call me tomorrow to arrange a time to come to my house. So, after six phone calls and feeling very frustrated and angry, I sure hope that replacing these parts will once and for all solve this problem. I will not be buying Dell ever again and I definitely wouldn't recommend Dell to anyone else.

I have a dell inspiron 531s. it is freezing off and on. it would work well for a day then it would just freeze, not responding to the mouse or keyboard. i have reformated the hard drive change the memory...

I had the same issue. I upgraded to Windows 7 and things did work allot better but the hanging still occured. I ran system mechanic and found there was a drive problem. This was repared by the program.
The problem occured again last night and the system will not boot past the dell splash screen. I am thinking it might be the motherboard that is a fault. Mine is out of its 12 month warranty, so no way to get Dell to investigate further. Also check the systems logs after the hang happens and see if there was something logged that caused the hang.

I hope this helps?

Regards,

Lannon

My dell inspiron e1705 will power on for tenmin beeps then freeze

Sounds like it's a motherboard or processor issue. Why, well when you said it's slow and freezes, sounds like either the motherboard or processor (I've had this issue with both) and as a long shot it could be a hard drive dieing.. (stops spinning intermittently)

Inspiron 531 freezes

You have to do some maintenance cleaning and check up. Both hardware and software. As this age usually two years.One common failure is the harddrive. You should get some backup procedure. As for software you may do the following. 1. Registry cleaning (Ccleaner is good but be careful also) 2. Application cleaning, uninstalling those program not needed in the system. 3. Log and history cleaning. 4. Defrag is good. 5. And virus scanning it also one of the major cause of system freezes. 6. And unloading some files (back it up then unload) As for hardware. You may do some dusting or reseating. Usually the CPU fans and system fans and its airways.
