My dad's computer is acting strange. He instaled SP2 a few weeks ago.
Recently he has been plagued with this problem: As he goes to a few various
web sites (Not random, certain ones in particular) upon clicking on an action
(Print in one, a link in the other) the computer simply ups & reboots. Then
we get the blue screen with disk checker.
It also happens when he clicks on Security Center in Control Panel.
I was trying to help last night ... updated & ran Spybot & Adaware. Found a
number of items in Adaware ... including 180Solutions and VX2. "Fixed" them.
Then I went to Folder Options to put him on Single Click and as soon as I
did, it rebooted.
This does not appear random, although it does happen a lot.
Does this seem to be hardware or software related? Can you please point me
in a proper troubleshooting direction? (He has a Celeron 1.0G w/ 256 RAM)
THANK YOU!!
