Computer picks the worst time to have problems. One of the most frustrating things when you are using a computer is you encounter the issues like:

Your computer freezes during Windows startup
Or your computer freezes on the Windows splash screen, in which case you have to restart it manually, only to freezes at the same place again.
Or maybe your computer freezes, where the mouse and keyboard become unresponsive and programs hang, Windows might seem like it's trying to start but eventually you have to manually restart it, only to see the same behavior again.

Computer freeze is typically easy to fix if it's an isolated problem. But if your computer freezes up on a regular basis, your computer may have a more serious issue. If these are the cases, you have to find a method to fix the issue if your computer freezes.

Fixing computer freezes requires a third-party program. Windows Boot Genius is one of the most effective or easiest utility I have ever tested. It creates a bootable disk and start up your computer from it. That's to say, even though Windows freezes on start up, you can thoroughly fix the issues no matter Windows 8 freezes, Windows 7 freezes, Vista freezes, or XP freezes.

Regardless of the specifics, this is the troubleshooting guide to use if Windows freezes. Here we take laptop freezes for example.
