[QUOTE="Tuvok, post: 14060"] Rolfw, All very good advice beinbg given to u, but I think ur barking up the wrong tree, U mention that this used to happen when u had a different graphics card also, so if this is the case, it is not a graphic crad issue, but more a software issue with one of your programs running in the back ground (like virus protection) or something else conflicting with something else at the time of lock up. Have you run chkdsk /f to find and fix errors? also have you tried to upgrade your IE, I had similar problem with my IE and when i upgraded the lockup cleared. The final thing you could which wont hurt, is re-install the windows xp pro over itself, it wont overwrite your files, but will restore drivers, also make sure you save your fav links first as this may get overwritten.
