Hi,
I built a computer recently--Celeron 2.4D CPU, 256 MB Kingston DDR 333 RAM,
AOpen MX4GVR-GN MOTHERBOARD, WESTERN DIGITAL WD400JB 40GB 7200RPM 8MB Hard
Drive, ASUS CD-S520 BLACK 52X CD-ROM DRIVE, WindowsXP Home SP2.
It freezes up every day--usually when it is idle--no programs running. The
operator comes back and just finds the mouse pointer frozen. The hard drive
activity light is solid red when this condition is found. When the computer
is restarted with the reset button, it sometimes freezes at "Detecting IDE
drives" in CMOS...other times it freezes at the Windows XP splash screen.
Everything is set to "never" in power scheme options. Western Digital
Diagnostics reports no problems with hard drive.
Thanks in advance for any diagnostic suggestions.
Bill
