Vista Feezes up often for about 10-20 seconds, Any ideas?
I built a new system just for Vista which consist of:

- Intel Duo Core 2 e6600 cooled by Sunbeam Tuniq Tower 120
- Asus p4B Premium Vista Edition
- 4 gigs of Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4 DDR2-800 XMS2-6400 Xtreme Performance
Memory
- 2 Western Digital Raptor WD1500AHFD 150GB Serial ATA 10,000RPM Hard Drive
w/16MB Buffer
- BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Video Card
- Powered by Thermaltake W0117RU Toughpower 750W Power Supply w/Active PFC


I'm not using Onecare or any other virus software now. I have UAC off and
windows search disabled. I'm using Office 2007 and some other basic apps.
While doing nothing more than browsing the web with either IE6 and/or
Firefox (latest) or reading/checking e-mail the PC will freeze for about
10-20 seconds. I've searched google and found hundreads of others having the
same issue but no one has found a solution. My drivers are all the latest as
of today and Vista is 100% updated with any new updates.

Any other service I can try to disable that Vista has inflated the OS with
that might stop this feezing?

No idea what is causing the problem. Two things to check:

1) Do you have the latest NVidia drivers for your video card.
NVidia was late to the party with drivers for Vista and
there are still some problems even with the latest.

2) Have you tried looking at what is using the CPU? I'd
suggest bringing up the task manage and leaving it where
you can see it. When the problem occurs, see what process
is taking all of the CPU.

This sounds like it could be a bad drive doing retries and remaps. I assume
your Raptors have SMART so you might look for something that can give you
SMART reporting just to see if you are registering hard errors.

Try removing Windows Defender as I think this is the cause of your problems.

Look at this forum for some possible help.

I had a similar problem with a Dell machine, fixed it temporarily with the
DVD cable swap, but then found the firmware update for the DVDROM and totally
fixed the problem.

Only two known reasons are there for this.

1. Indexing - You have it disabled.
2. Optical Drive's Firmware

Try updating the firmware for the optical drives that you might have
installed in the system.

Also update the BIOS if a latest release is available.
