I've had that happen. Actually, even worse: I rebooted the computer (CAD),
and it locked up. I did it again, it locked up. So, I hit the power
button. Not the reset button, the power button. Turned it off for about 3
seconds, powered it back up. MY COMPUTER LOCKED UP. Not during the boot.
In the BIOS.
At that point, I was scared. I turned off the computer and watched my watch
for a full 30 seconds. Turned it on. It worked fine......
Go figure.
