I'm running Windows XP. Recently my system has been locking up for no
apparent reason. I'll be doing something innocuous like reading email, or
reviewing a site on the internet when all of a sudden everything locks up.
Can't type, can't move the cursor, alt-cont-del doesn't do anything, pressing
the power-on/off button on the computer won't bring up the dialog box with
option to cancel or restart, etc. Have to shut off power and then re-start.
Only thing I've done recently is intall a wireless router. My desktop is
plugged into the router, and I have a lap top that connects wireless-ly. I'm
sharing a printer, which in connected to my desktop, with the lap top.
Any suggestions on diagnosing / fixing this problem?
