It doesnot happen often, but sometimes when i boot my computer, it freezes in midway. The mouse won't move. What might be the problem and the solution?

problem is definately the hard disk.
bad sectors must have developed on the storage media in the hard disk
this normally happens due to shutting off the pc directly or by cutting the power supply without going to "start" and turn off computer option. this reduces life of a harddisk.
run scan disk at startup to mark the bad sectors on the harddisk
so that data is not stored in already marked bad sectors.

CMOS checksum error usually means the motherboard CMOS battery has failed. You need to replace it. When the BIOS battery fails then the BIOS reverts to default settings. These settings may not be right for your hard disk. For example, if your hard disk is a SATA disk but the default BIOS is IDE then the disk will not be seen and will not work. Get the battery fixed then check what type of hard drive you have. Change the BIOS settings so the BIOS can see your hard disk.

I experience the same kind of problem and i found tht real culprit is hard disk sector which gone bad. i suggest to run scandisk first from windows then of dos. it takes times and remember dont ignore when it promt for bad sector otherwise it ignore the bad one that time and problem remains.

You have to boot into "safe mode" by pressing F8 at the boot screen. Then you can do what the others suggest.

It looks like you have a corrupted os or a hardware problem. Try reinstalling a new operating system or windows.

I believe you have too many startup programs running in the background. Stop some of them you feel that are not necessary.
(Assuming you are using Windows 2000/XP) Click 'Start' =>'Run'
=>Type 'msconfig' =>on 'startup' tab, uncheck unnecessary progrms.

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

could be a conflict with another program trying to start, or just too many starting up or not enough ram. or a bug.
