Computer Screen Freezes after a few minutes

Please look in the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for Warning
and Error Reports over the last 2 days use and post copies here.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools, and
Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information
regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important.

HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you should
double click for further information. You can copy using copy and paste.
Often the link will, however, say there is no further information.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click
on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button
resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event Viewer. Now
start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. This
will paste the info from the Event Viewer Error Report complete with links
into the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event
Viewer.


Hope this helps.

HI
I am reading to throw this in the trash. My computer keeps freezing
after a few minutes. I can move the mouse but if I try to open any
program, or back page a web site I am viewing I can not the screen just
stays on that same page. I do not know what to do. I have run my virus
program thoroughly and there were no virus, trojans, etc detected. I
have run adaware, spybot, spyware doctor, registry fix, spy sweeper,
xosoft, and the computer is clean. I do not know what else to try. I
also restored to a previous date two weeks ago and it still is doing
it. I am at a loss for direction. I can not tell you how much I need
help and would be forever in your debt.
thank you so much for at least reading this
