I've just installed a new motherboard and processor, AMD 3100. I had to
repartition and reformat the hard drive. But now I find the computer freezing
on me. I've been noticing it happens when I've been inactive on the computer
for a while, or many times while I'm surfing the net. The only think I can do
is hit the reset switch to startup again. I thought it might be a conflict
with the sound card on the motherboard and my Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2,
so I disabled the sound card on the motherboard. It's still happening. (I'm
still suspicious about this one, because the sound cracks when I turn the
system on.) I also thought it might be a misconfiguration with the router I'm
using, so I re-installed that. No difference. I know there's a way to
troubleshoot the problem, but I don't remember how. Does anyone know how I
can check out what's happening and why? I'd really like this thing resolved
soon. I've been already a week and a half trying to get the system back in
operation. I'd appreciate your help.
