Run the event viewer by typing eventvwr in the search window after one of these episodes where things freeze. Critical errors, if any, will be red. Also run a memtest to check the state of your ram. Search memtest to download it, it's free.

wuaueng.dll (932) SUS20ClientDataStore: A request to write to the file "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb" at offset 16842752 (0x0000000001010000) for 32768 (0x00008000) bytes succeeded, but took an abnormally long time (78 seconds) to be serviced by the OS. This problem is likely due to faulty hardware. Please contact your hardware vendor for further assistance diagnosing the problem. | ||

Run the windows memory test (it's included in windows 7, just type "memory test" into the search box in the control panel) and see if any errors pop up -- you can also try running on just one stick of RAM to identify memory issues. It doesn't sound like you're overheating (44 ain't great, but it's not danger zone. if it ever gets above 85 or so with a full load you might want to get worried), but it couldn't hurt to buy a can of compressed air and blow all of the dust out of the inside of the computer. Also, the guys on the tech support forum here on TL are super helpful, feel free to hit it up if you're still unsure what your problem is. | ||

CPU and Disk spike up to 100% whenever this occurs in Resource Manager :/ + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/FFlPH.png) Yeah after some googling it seems this is a HDD issue, ugh. What's a good way to check an HDD? I heard something about chkdsk? | ||

Try running chkdsk following the instructions here, see if that turns anything up. | ||

It sounds like it's having a hard time writing to disk in more than one location, and if it can run memory test without incident when the problem is so frequent I don't think the problem is your RAM (though I would recommend running memtest 86+ for a full pass to double-check). I can't imagine it being a software problem if the issue has gotten worse over time. Try running chkdsk following the instructions here, see if that turns anything up. Alright running chksdk, thanks. I can't run memtest because I don't have a way to boot the ISO atm. I've also defragmented my drive and I haven't froze in a long time.... | ||

Silly question: how much space do you have left on C:\ ? Check your update settings. Maybe there's something set incorrectly? Check your C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore directory - what's in it and how much space does it take up? If everything looks fine, try this from microsoft.com: type cmd and press enter type net stop wuauserv and press enter rename c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution softwaredistribution.old and press enter type net start wuauserv and press enter type exit and press enter Your new C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore folder should be much smaller. You may also have to restart your comp. | ||

I have 887GB left on C (out of 931) There isn't really anything in datastore, just a folder with 14 logs. When I try to do "net stop wuauserv" I get a "system error 5 has occured" and "acess denied" | ||
