Using 2000 Professional w/office '97 Professional.

Everytime I go the internet at some randon point in time,
the system locks up totally. I have to shut off at main
power everytime.

Sometimes it locks up almost immedialty, other times like
right now i have been on for at least ten minutes
(amazing) and no lock up yet.

We bought two identical used PIII computers, both hooked
to a T1, and this one (mine) lockes up, the other one does
not.

Amzingly when this first happened, the computer shop
replaced te whole CPU. Same problems. Replaced with a 3rd
one, same problem!

I swaped the cable connections at the wall, and this
computer continues to lock up.

I use Yahoo as my opening web browser and the other unit
is using MSN....and no Office '97, as this is my personal
copy from an old home unit.

Any ideas??????

These may help.
