VIRUS or SPYWARE may be on your computer. This crap will suck up a lot of ram and make your computer run reallllly slow and can cause it to freeze even when just doing simple tasks like reading e-mail. or you may be overloading your system... I need more details to be honest.

If it's a USB connected mouse, update the driver for the mouse. If you can't update the driver, unplug and replug the mouse preferably in a different USB port (the USB ports sometimes stop working).

make sure ur HDD isnt fully used up and make sure ur do a disk cleanup so get rid of those unwanted stuff on ur computer. another thing is make sure u do a virus scan and a spyware scan....there is a possibility there is a worm or something slowing and freezing ur pc.

You might want to run a virus check. It sounds like you might have a virus. You should periodically run a virus check and also defrag your system.

your ram is shared between your processor and your video feed
so a simple solution is installing at least 128 mb video card to free up your ram for processing .
