About 7 months ago my old lap top (Win XP Pro SP3) began locking up randomly:

Through some help I attempted to repair the OS, did not help.
I think I remember re-installing including the SP3, did not help.
I updated all drivers, did not help.
Virus protection ZonePro Suite--Did not "find" any virus and did not help.
Used RegCure to fix the registry, did not help.
While doing these tasks the lap top froze up several times requiring several
attempts to accomplish all.
I ended up purchasing another lap top, but I still want to try and figure
out what went wrong, because the lap top was still in good shape and not that
old. The only procedure I have not done is to re-format the HD and try again.
