    System keeps freezing up

    Thanks for all the suggestions Jlockley, it has been a fun process of elimination job, as it was a brand new hard drive and no programs added to it yet, that part was easy...IE6 is on it and I ran the update for it again, to no avail...I removed the panels, plugged in a house fan and it still...

    System keeps freezing up

    Thanks Lawnboy, trying that now, as I have tried the opening up the side panel and pointing a fan there to no avail, will run the IE Service pack, and if that doesn't work, guess I will go to the more expensive of the 3 suggestions so far and visit Office Depot for a Power Supply. Thanks...

    System keeps freezing up

    If I am just in yahoo talking to my sister it works okay it seems, as soon as I open IE and maybe check email or google a recipe, it locks up. Nothing works, no mouse, no keyboard.

    PC reboots - Want to know how to scan for viruses?

    Just a guess but if it has been reformatted lately with XP it is probably that crazy worm (MSBlast) that was lurking about last year, Everytime I reformat with my XP CD that was distributed in 2002 I have to run the patch again, might want to take a look at that...You get a system shut down box...

    When in DOS the A & D are not seen

    Problem solved, amazing what the correct drivers can accomplish, to think I use to consider myself smart. Thank you micker377, edfair, and timtroop for responding to my post. (The thankies button seems to be broke on the forum, or just having issues, hard to tell)

    When in DOS the A & D are not seen

    When in DOS I can get the directory for C ... but, I can't change to the A or D drives, it says that they are not there or something. I don't know any better way to explain this, maybe I should just toss it, or try a reformat again?
