    Try to install a good driver for every component.

    Are you sure the PC is freezing or just your mouse not working?

    Could be a multitude of things. Bad USB ports, bad mouse, etc..

    Could also be running 7 on a PC that isn’t really up to the task.

    when i installed windows 7 it took around an hour for it to start up the first time. i suggest reinstalling it and starting it up and letting it sit and load for a while.

    Could be a conflict with your mouse, USB port. You need to make sure all of your devices are Windows 7 compatible.
    But like mentioned before, there are other things that could cause this.
    A faulty power supply has been known to stop things cold, in their tracks. Loose memory sticks, faulty keyboard.
    Try using another mouse, if you have access to one, and see if that helps.
    A clean install does not install your old drivers, so you need to reinstall all your programs and drivers, and update them so that they run on Windows 7. But unless you have a mouse that doesn’t run on Windows mouse drivers, your mouse should work. Later, you need to install your particular brand mouse driver.
    I once had a keyboard that wouldn’t work when installing Windows XP, because the keyboard was USB powered, and it would not power up during the install, I had to use an adapter to plug the keyboard into a regular keyboard slot.
    My son had a computer that would run for a hour or maybe just a few minutes, and then..poof, it would go off. I replaced the power supply and it worked great after that.
    Good luck

    The Windows operating system constantly refers to the registry to get information about all of the components such as hardware and software which are installed on the computer. The registry tells Windows what to do and how to access the various programs, files, and processes.However, the registry can contain bad information which sends Windows off doing useless tasks or running unneeded routines. Sometimes errors occur including the freezeing. Other times the system slows down. Because of the sheer number of factors that can affect the registry, there’s no one size fits all approach. You can’t just go into the registry and remove the bad information because it’s nearly impossible to decipher which information is good and which information is bad. That’s a job better suited for software. I should like to commend Registry Easy http://make-a-computer-run-better.com to you ! You can try ! Good luck!

    The most common cause of computer freezes is a corrupt registry.
    Corruption within your registry keys, registry classes, and registry settings are the most common causes of Windows error messages.
    The Computer registry is a database that stores all of your computer
    settings. The computer registry becomes more complex as you use your computer. The more programs you use the greater the chance your
    computer registry will develop errors and become bloated over time. Without cleaning the registry on a regular basis it is very likely that your PC will freeze.

    Cleaning the Windows registry improves the performance of your computer and will reduce the number of PC freezes. The Registry cleaner cleans the registry and frees up Windows registry space.

    Completely clean your windows registry with a few clicks of the mouse
