Problem: Windows XP freezes or hangs, sometimes just after Windows loads,
sometimes in half and hour, sometimes in an hour, but it always happens. Need
to press the reset button.
------------------------------------------------
I've checked the forums for both hardware and software at MSI, both in the
VGA and MB areas. I've also checked the MS knowledge base.
------------------------------------------------
The computer is a new build, reusing my old HD. I had Win98 on the HD, and
before the build upgraded to WinXP. I've always run the most up to date
Norton anti-virus software, both on the old computer, and the new one
(featuring the old HD), and did a full scan before and after the build.
I am absolutely stumped.
Any help would be received with great gratitude AND I will pass on the info!
Thanks much!
