1. Try using a generic Windows 7 x64 disk...might be less bloatware than the HP restore disk. Windows Update should automatically find most of the drivers, the ones it doesn't find you can grab off HPs website.

2. Download SeaTools for DOS from Seagate's website and run some HDD checks, could be a failing hard drive.

3. Monitor RAM, CPU, and GPU usage. If one of these is maxing out at 100%, he just needs a better computer and/or more RAM.
