There are time when it starts up and the notebook tuns on, and for some reason it will freeze and will not continue to run. There are other times that it will start up and than as soon as my desktop starts appearing, it will freeze.

It doesn't like you.
Haha just kidding. Go the manufacturers site and find out the two keys you need to hit as it starts up to reload your operating system. Then it will work just like new again.
Good Luck.

At your computers boot hold the f8 key. This will give you a list options. Enter Safe Mode and this will boot up your computer without any programs that run at you start up except for the some system programs that are needed to boot the computer.
It sounds like you might have to many programs trying to load at start-up. How many icons do you have in your system tray (bottom right corner/clock area) after a complete boot-up? You should only use the ones that you need (anti-virus, firewall,etc).
You may also run this command: msconfig
Click on start up and uncheck any programs that you don't want to start as the computer is booting. If you are unsure what the program is, just run a search on the internet. A good way to disable spyware.

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