The spec of the PC said it runs WinXP. 32-bit or 64-bit?? http://ed.nt.ntnu.no/lib/exe/fetch.php/utstyr:dell_optiplex_320.pdf Could you boot into Safe Mode? If it worked and if you suspected that it's a recent Win Update that caused the problem, you could remove Installed Updates by booting into Safe Mode. Do you have a spare hard disk?

You should upgrade your OS to Window$ 7, to take full advantage of the TRIM feature for SSDs. Also, the support of WInXP will end in coming April. -- .~. Might, Courage, Vision.
