a few days ago my computer began hanging and then freezing when using skype. after it was doing this i performed a system restore, and that worked fine for about a day. then it started up again. after such, i couldnt get the system restore to work, it would just hang and spin that infernal blue circle. i deleted the most recent windows update and was able to do a system restore again. but that has had no effect on the freezes and hangs. it only works in safe mode. im fine if i just stay on the desktop in normal without opening anything but whats the point in that?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
