      Never argue with a stupid person, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

        Opening? Ops?

        What exactly happens? Please be more specific.
        What are you doing when it freezes?
        Does it start up at all?
        Can you access safe mode?
        Have you tried a recovery?

              It is starting to heat up some but it does it when I first turn it on and boot up if I don't hurry before I punch up IE.
