I have MBP 17 running OS X 10.7.5 with 256 SSD.
Recently it has started hanging/freezing.
The only way Ive found to recover is to try switching off and then back on again. It seems reluctant to restart. I have to repeat this patiently until I get a result. At worst I get a black screen. Sometimes just a white screen. More commonly I get a white screen with apple, then black screen, then a white screen or, if Im lucky, a grey linen background with sign-in box. (It would normally be a lion with sign-in box.) This is happening almost daily.
I think it first started when I was using Windows in VM Fusion (with out of date antivirus). Ive not used windows since.
