Answer 1

Easiest is to clean up your system first to see if that doesn't fix the freezing. Do this in order.

1. Remove any unnecessary programs that you no longer need or use.
2. Run your adaware and antiviral programs (download some if you don't have any, everyone should have those two.
3. Defrag as was stated here already
