Hi
my pc keeps "locking up" it's done it 4 times now 15th, 20th, 23rd and 27 Oct) and the only way to fix it is to do system restore from safe mode. what happens is the mouse is o.k. but as soon as you try to type anything it "freezes" you can't use the mouse or the keyboard and Ctrl Alt Del doesn't work. It only happens when the pc is first turned on, not during a session - I've tried another keyboard and it still does it. I've run virus scans and registry mechanic - I'm not very techie so don't want to "fiddle" any more, just glad it's working at the moment so my daugher can do her half term homework !
I use Internet Explorer and Firefox
also if someone could advise what programs I can stop from running at startup as I am sure there are plenty that are not needed and it takes ages to load everything up
PC is Windows XP, 736mb RAM, 200ghz, Amd sempron ™ 2800+
I have done a hijack this log below - hope someone can help, thank you

Welcome to the Webuser forum. 
you say the only way to fix it is to do a system restore in safe mode.
what happens if you just shut down and restart the computer ?
 Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from Here.
Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
- Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
- If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
- Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.
- The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
- When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
- Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
- When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart.(See Extra Note)
- The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
- Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log.
Extra Note:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediatly.
--------------------
IF I HAVE SAVED YOU MONEY, PLEASE CONSIDER GIVING A DONATION TO HELP IN MY FIGHT AGAINST MALWARE.
 
When the only tool you own is a hammer, every problem begins to look like a nail.

thank you, I'll try that when I get home (at work at the moment, unfortunately !)
got it working last night so left it turned on so my daughter could do her homework today, You asked about what happens if you just shutdown and restart - it comes back on and you can use the mouse but as soon as you touch the keyboard it locks up

I'm having real trouble with this
I downloaded the Malaware program and ran it. It asked for the Pc to be restarted, when it restarted it locked up again. It was even locked up in safe mode. So far I have tried 3 different dates for system restore and haven't managed to get it back - and by doing a restore I think I've lost the Malaware log file
I have run another hijackthis and managed to save it to a memory stick without having to use the keyboard (I'm sending this from my daughters pc)

This doesn't look like a malware problem, more likely a software\hardware fault.
try running sfc \scannow
to see if any system files are missing.
put your XP disc in the drive.
click on START\RUN and type CMD into the address bar and click OK.
At the DOS PROMPT type SFC /SCANNOW. note the space between SFC and /SCANNOW. hit enter.

I don't have an xp disk it came pre loaded on the pc can I still do this?
slight problem with this - the keyboard is still locked so can't type !!
just had a thought if its a problem between hardware and software could it be something to do with the printer? the first time it happened I was trying to scan something - am currently uninstalling the printer to see if that does anything

it could be any piece of hardware causing it.

think it may be sorted now (I hope)
I uninstalled all the printer software
also in device drivers it had an exclamation mark by the keyboard so uninstalled it then rebooted to reinstall keyboard, reinstalled the printer software - was a bit worried because it then asked for a reboot but it has come back on working fine and printing - I also went into the startup and ticked everything in case something there that was unchecked was causing problems - I'll have to have a look through them later - going to bed now !! I will reinstall the malaware program and run that again as well anyway because it did find quite a few errors - but not sure if it actually cleared them as jammed up again after I first did it
thanks for your help
