on my HP laptop about once a month. also if I leave the machine unattended for 10 mins it freezes about 2 or 3 times a month. I have to remember if I'm leaving the mach to close the lid.
To exit the black screen I must disconnect the power, then restart.
could this be an HP problem?

It looks then, like a registry problem caused by M$ or even HP adherence to M$ doctrine. There are publications, including on the internet, explaining registry functions but nothing to hint at this.
If you do acheive a working registry it's worth backing it up with free software rather than M$ software and possibly to turn off the "system restore", using your free backup instead.
Sounds like Vista. Is it?
The fix for Vista is XP+ but we've all had this discussion to the Nth degree ad nuseum.

You using "sleep" mode, or are you actually turning it off when you're done?Windows 7
I've seen some odd stuff with sleep mode. Mostly works, but it seems like a full reboot is needed from time to time.
sleep mode works fine (when I close the lid), everything else is where the trouble arises.

Try GOD MODE.
