Oooook, for the past week, my lappy has seriously been acting up. It will get caught every 30 seconds or stay that way for a second or 2. i can tell when it does this because when I have my music going it will get stuck on a single note and sort of repeat over and over again really fast. And If it's not doing that then it's freezing completely, meaning the music will stop, my mouse won't move, etc. Sometimes this will last a few seconds, other times it lasts up to a minute or until I restart it. Then sometimes when i go to restart my lappy it has trouble restarting. First it will shut off and the screen and all the little lights on my keyboard will turn off, then the little lights will come back on but the screen stays blank. It will stay that way for about a minute then the little blue lights turn off again and then turn back on. I usually have to hold the power button down until they go off again, wait a few minutes, then try again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.

Anyways, That's the problem I've been having with the lappy. Now, the occasional freezing is tolerable for a while. I can still do normal stuff it just takes a while longer.
As for the affect it has on Toontown, i will be playing it and then all of a sudden my entire screen will go black like its shutting off, then come back up with my menu bar on the bottom, the window bar on the top, and the toon hand pointer, but the game screen is black. Then I get a little message that pops up from the bottom corner that says the Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered... but the screen is still black. So far it has done this to me in the middle of 3 buildings. I was just bearly lucky enough to be on the last floor of one and has a sf on the other who understood my problem, but on this last one i had to exit cuz i was causing problems for the toons i was in the building with.

It's really frustrating cuz I'm almost done with 3 of my tasks but i cant finish them because of my crazy computer! aaaahhhhhh!
Someone help please... If it's in your power or knoweledge of whats going on I beg of you, help meeee.
