Laptop keeps locking up

[Joyride]

I have a Toshiba A75-S206.

It almost always locks up. It just freezes and i have to hold the power button to turn it off to restart.

Sometimes it locks up right away other times when it feels like it

I have formatted and reinstalled Windows XP many times to no help

Should i replace the battery, hard drive or just ad more ram?

Or should i do my favorite choice, chuck it off a bridge?

Please help

Thanks

I'd open it up and re-seat everything!

Your CPU is probably loose or something...

did you add more memory recently? Like VinDSL said try reseat your memory firmly.
