stop responding

About this tag
The tag 'stop responding' covers issues where Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008 systems freeze or become unresponsive. Common causes include WDDM drivers, smart card authentication, network I/O operations, and accessing files on network shares. Specific problems affect Internet Explorer, PowerPoint 2007, and Windows Explorer. Microsoft has released fixes for many of these scenarios, such as KB2526870, KB2706168, KB2617202, KB2582112, KB2550581, and KB2531912. The tag also includes an error related to Drive Letter Access causing Internet Explorer to stop responding.
