One site I read a while back noted that whilst we all like to blame the operating system straight off, we should not forget that windows is released differently, eg apple macs for instance are built with a specific limited range of hardware in mind. I would just say to make sure your system is fully updated to 8.1 with all updated drivers before attempting to play around with any OS settings. I don’t think enabling/disabling hyper-v made any difference when I tried enabling it to fix the freezing initially, but of course for some people this might be a fix. in my opinion I believe the two companies developing those programs have simply now bothered to update their software to ensure 100 percent compatibility, but in many cases I am sure you are right in your post above, as lots of sites report a bios issue with many Acer systems. As for my last post (malwarebytes and spywareblaster also freezing) they seem to have fixed themselves. To me it sounds like my graphics drivers on the acer (my laptop manufacturer) were the main issue for random freezes. I havent tried hibernation yet, but sleep mode on my acer laptop is now working (it used to freeze in both modes).

To run a system restore in Windows 8 do the following: System Restore basically restores a previous system state which should resolve any issues caused by software or system updates. Below are the things that I tried to fix the freezes that I experienced.

Strange as it was, I had other options in my arsenal.

Still, after several restarts I decided to run a system restore first, only to find out that the issue was not resolved by it. I first assumed that it had something to do with the store updates, even though I found that hard to believe. While I was able to switch between the desktop and the start screen of Windows 8, I could not launch start screen applications either. I first though this was a desktop freeze, as standard desktop controls like the clicking on buttons, closing of windows or scrolling in the task manager did not work anymore, but it quickly turned out to be more complicated than this. The system would freeze occasionally, so that some controls simply were not functioning anymore. When I started to work on my Windows 8 PC today I noticed a strange behavior after updating some apps in the store.
