Ever since I got my new VAIO VGN- FW 200 in December, I have had a problem. It really stumps me. Every other day, when I turn on my computer, and open IE IE freezes, along with WMP and Sidebar. If i restart, it will work. It is now up to a point into where i can not stand it. EVERY AV AND ANTISPY PROGRAM SAYS MY COMPUTER IS CLEAN. In safe mode, i get a similar problem. When I right-click on the recycle bin, it frezes and I need to force the shut off.

Took it to best buy after it bsod'd on me. Turned out the hard drive was dead, as I found out by the googling the bsod. However, it is covered under warranty.
