Norton freezes my computer


















That's why I'm not blaming the other programs anymore. But then, who wants to pay for a subscription to Norton and then turn it off all the time when you're surfing? Makes no sense.

I got the program so I could use it, not so I could shut it off when I wanted to do anything worthwhile. I've been investigating this for several months now, trying to see exactly where the problem was and that's how I've discovered it has to be the Norton doing it.

Chalkbrd thank you for replying to those suggestions, they were a starting point. It just seems that with as many copies of NIS there is out there, I don't remember reading about a lot of people having problems with stalling. If I can ask, how do you disable Nortons? I didn't think you could shutdown the main program, without uninstalling it. I have uninstalled it using the Norton uninstall tool. I also read somewhere that if I reinstalled it, it would clear up my problem.

Still have the problem. I also read one message somewhere that said if I would disable it using the until system restart, it would clear up my problem after I rebooted. Again, didn't work. The messages I've found concerning this issue have been for older versions of this product, but the symptoms the people have listed match what I've been going through. Well Chalkbrd, I'm at a loss.. If you were having the problem before NIS, it may be an overheating problem or maybe a driver problem, but the problem only happens when NIS is installed, I'm like you It must have something to do with NIS.

I hope you keep getting help from SendOfJive. I've been dealing with this problem on a girlfriend's laptop for a while. Somewhere along the way the installation must be cluttered, maybe because of installing over version This worked for me or better her. I'm not sure you answered my question. I wasn't asking how much memory you have installed. I was asking how much memory Windows is reporting that it sees.

Did you ever check the Windows event logs Adminstrative tools, Logs? There might be some clues there in the System or Application logs. Also check the Norton CPU chart main screen, Performance , if you can see which task of Norton was busy at the moment of stalling. Hi Chalkbrd: I had the same problem a few years ago. It may be coincidental but I also had a Dell Inspiron m at the time. It took Symantec a few months before they finally released a patch to fix the bug.
