Mike......have you checked the temperature? is it overheating? when it freezes, does the numlock on the keyboard work? if the numlock doesn't work, then it is usually hardware related...if the numlock does work, then it's usually software or operating system related
I just spent 8 months troubleshooting my own freeze ups here.....I did EVERYTHING.....I finally found the problem.....it was my MOUSE.....yep, put a new mouse on it and haven't locked up in three weeks.....moral of the story? check EVERYTHING Linda Linda's Computer Stop http://www.personal-computer-tutor.com/ Editor, ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers http://www.personal-computer-tutor.com/ABC.htm Online Instructor, Eclectic Academy http://www.eclecticacademy.com/index.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mike H Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 12:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: PCWorks: Hardware Problem? Got a real stumper folks. My wife's computer.....PIII 667, 256 mb ram, gigabyte mother board, Win98SE.... has just started freezing intermittently. When it locks up it will usually continue to lock on the boot unless you power it off for a few hours. ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
