Hello everyone,
I bought Fujitsu Siemens Laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic installed in it. I have installed every necessary things such as Anti Virus, windows update is done, etc.
Either I am doing my work or just on desktop, the laptop gets hang and I am unable to do anything other then switching laptop off by pressing the switch off button for a while. Mouse gets stuck, keyboard doesn't work at all. There is no virus or trojan in my laptop as I have formatted my laptop and tried twice but still the same issue!
Can anyone please help me out of this problem?
Looking forward to the pleasure of hearing good news from you soon.
Thanks and best regards,
AbdulBasit Makrani

Do you get any blue screens at all? Or does the laptop just freeze up giving you no option but to turn it off?

Thanks for replying Sir 
No, no blue or any other color screen. It just freezes and keyboard, mouse nothing works that time. When this happened, I have left it in the same situation for 1 hour also to see if this problem goes away itself but nothing changes when it get freeze.
Then I need to press turn off button to shut off my laptop directly!

ctrl+alt+del doesn't work to unfreeze the laptop?
Has this only happened this once, or is it happening regularly?

It happens regularly. Sometimes after 30 minutes, sometimes after 1 or 2 hour. It happens anytime!
Specification of my laptop is
Processor - Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2450 @2.00GHz 2.00 GHz
Memory (RAM) - 766 MB
System type - 32-bit Operating System
Is there anything specific hardware details you want to know ?

Memory is a bit on the low side for a Vista spec Laptop.

It shows 766 MB but actually it's 1 GB ram. Also when I bought it, Windows Visa Home Basic was installed already but I removed it because of the same problem I mentioned above and installed Windows XP after 2 days of purchase date and today I just formatted XP as it was giving me some other problems and thought to re-install Vista again as it might not give me the same problem again but...... It's the same situation for me 
It's working very fast. Also it get freeze when I am doing nothing and on desktop. It get stuck anytime it wants. There is no time, nothing set.
I hope you guys can help me out as I have updated norton antivirus, windows update, office update and many other necessary software installed and this problem is still there.
Vista is installed today past 6 hours and it have freeze only once from that time. I will keep the laptop on for more 12 hours to see what happens and will share the results with you guys.
In the meantime, if you have any question/feedback, please let me know and I will follow up
Thank you,

Have you done a Microsoft update since you reformatted it back from XP to Vista?
Try Microsoft Update rather than Windows update, you might get some more options available. Just to make sure you don't have anything in your system virus/spyware wise, i would download and install the free version of AVG anti-virus from here and also install and run their anti-spyware tool from here
These can be uninstalled once the scans have been completed. Please update the products first before you run the scans.
