My computer keeps freezing like every 10 seconds and then will come to after about 5 seconds. Any idea how to make it stop?

Sounds like you've got too many things going on at one time. Try closing some programs and see how you go.
it could be you need more RAM. Right click the my Computer icon and select properties, you can see how much RAM you have Your looking for around 512MB. if you want to upgrade check out this link.

Check for viruses, avioid useing too many programs at a time, your computer can only do a certain amount of things at a time, and mayb free up some space on your hard drive

Ok, I nkow how to specificlly handle this problem. When a computer freezes, check for viruses and spyware. Also, when you are done with that step, please free up some harddrive space on your computer. Depending on your OS, I would say that you may need an upgrade alltogether.

you are low on virtual memory and physical memory. try using a program that will defragment your ROM.
You can try a 30 free trial of system mechanic @ www.iolo.com.
I use this once a week and it keeps my memory from overloading.
