sorry grammer is bad but both freeze about half way it will not run either program all the way they both stop at the same place every time

 

[pookie8]

is there a way to reboot the whole system from scratch with the disk that it came with

 

[Wet Chicken]

No need to appologize for the grammer. Have you run scan disk (through) and defrag lately? If not I would boot into safe mode and then run both. Reboot and download Adaware/update/run/reboot.
