My laptop (a toshiba with 2GHz Proc, 512 RAM, running XP
Pro) hangs up on start after getting to the desktop for a
few minutes, goes dark for a second, then is ready to
go.
Nothing else starts with windows. If my wireless card is
inactive, no peripherals, etc., it's the same.
Maybe incidentally:
1) It also takes about 25 seconds to wake, but I'm not
sure if that's abnormal, and
2) during the hang the hard-disk light flashes regularly,
with gaps of up to 15 seconds where it does not.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Hank
