I just got this Laptop (Toshiba Satellite L355-S7900) in March. I like using keyboard commands for certain functions (in particluar, ALT+SPACEBAR to access the upper left menu of an app or browser for restore, minimize, close, etc . . . ) No matter what app/browser I am using, that particular command (no others that I know of so far) causes my apps/browser to freeze. I can get out of this with CTRL+ALT+DEL, but it certainly is a PIA.

Anyone experience this? I am using Vista Home Premium. Intel Pentium Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16 GHz w/ 3G RAM. 32-bit OS.

Is this topic in the wrong place? Over a month and no responses. Just wondering. BUMP.

For those who might find this in the future ... IE8 required a reset and no more freezing :huh:
