I have all the exact same symptom, right down to the freezing and and crashes. I think it might have been a bad update some where during the month.i still have no clue how to fix it even though i have been working on it for days.
Uh, I'm guessing you posted next to a current post that was answered and got out of order, so now we don't know what 'thing' you're referring to. Could you post a link to the post you're referring to or let us know what exactly is going on with your situation? Thanks
