I keep having to restart my entire computer because a very simple spreadsheet keeps freezing and locking up to where I can't even use control alt delete. I have seen this issue has been ongoing, why isn't there a resolution yet?

Try it in advance by going to File -> Options -> Advanced -> in the Display area -> Disable hardware graphics acceleration... check the box there... and see what happens.
If it didn't help, then do a safe mode start.
Attached is a link that provides help for a few steps, including the start of safe mode.
Excel not responding, hangs, freezes or stops working
At the very beginning, make sure all updates have been done before going through these steps.
I hope that this information could help you a little.
