Limewire keeps freezing with Windows XP I don't know what to do sometimes everything will freeze including my mouse and keyboard and sometimes the program just freezes and doesn't respond when I click on anything. I can't even shutdown my computer when this happens, please help! Windows XP Pro SP2 Systemax Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80 GHz 512 MB Ram Modem- Motorola SM56 Dial-up Limewire 4.4.5 newest Java |
Ditto, just started happening today after I downloaded new LW version. Restarted and ran Checkdisk, will run defrag, we'll see. |
I'm using Windows 98 and I've locked up everytime I'm on LW Pro after something like 20 minutes. Kazaa never locked up neither did Napster. I don't think it's a system problem. I get no other lock ups, even when running Ameritrades Stock streamer all day. I can't find anything on the faq so am replying here. why the freezes on the pro version?? |

The 20 Minute Freeze-Up I'm having the same problems on Windows 98. After 20 minutes, the "blue screen of death" appears. No other problems on any other software, and I've used DSL, cable, and dialup - all with the same results. I've noted a couple of things - first the problem seems to only affect incoming or downloads, not uploads. Second, adjusting the number and speed of up- or downloads has no effect, but just seems to take longer to happen. I've used Pro, but as soon as this stuff started happening, I removed it, and stayed with basic. Why pay for something that doesn't work? Another note: a much earlier version, I think 4.1 or so, didn't have this problem. |
I just started using LW yesterday and ran accross the same lockout problem. I then reloaded LW 4.8.0 and seem to have cleared up the problem. I am using Windows 98 S.E. and thought that this might be the problem, and therefore I tried to upgrade to WindowsXP but I can not figure how to do this with LW. Does anybody have any suggestions? Regards Joe |
