This game? This is a forum not a game. Your computer probably is clumped with junk, spyware, viruses. Do you take care of your computer as in anti-spyware, anti-virus, regular disk cleanups and such? Also, hit Start and then click run and type "msconfig" without the quotes and go to the startup tab. Uncheck anything you see that you dont want starting up when your computer reboots. You probably have too many programs starting up when your computer starts up and your RAM can't take it and freezes.


Also, post your computer specifications. (Right click My Computer > Properties > look under computer and tell us what is there)

What kind of computer is this? Home built or name brand?

What are the complete system specs? List the parts by brand and model including the power supply.

Did your computer always do this or did this just start? If it just started, what did you do to the computer just before the problem started?

Do you have security software (anti-virus, anti-malware) installed on your computer and do you run full scans on a regular basis?
