I have been running Vista Ultimate (32-bit) since it first shipped, generally with good luck as my configuration is quite standard. In the past months it’s taken to having the screen, mouse and keyboard freeze up for minutes at a time, generally recovering only to freeze again a minutes or hours later.
Sometimes this seems to be related to when I plug my iPhone in to sync with iTunes (my iPod touch seems to work fine), but other times it seems more related to external hard disks.
I’m beginning to think this may be more related to my USB ports. Possibly power capacity, my PC main power supply capacity, etc. Maybe iPhone needs more USB power?
I’ve run tests on my hard drives (several internal) and RAM memory and they all come back fine.
I’m having difficulty identifying a next step. Any thoughts?
(I haven’t included a full components list here, but I can if needed)
Thanks,
Tim
