Windows XP freezing

[Rich]

Hi all. I keep having an issue with my XP Pro. The system
is freezing up on me when im idle and not doing anything.
Ive got full updates, I have plenty of RAM and im not
having any other problems (that im aware of)...

Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone exerienced
anything of the sort?

Any help would be great!

One to try - this is quite often a result of the mouse driver and the
video driver arguing over which controls the pointer. It is easy to
check on - Control Panel - Display - Settings, Click Advanced, and on
the Troubleshoot page reduce the acceleration slider one notch or two.
If one does it, there is negligible loss of performance: if two are
needed look for updated video drivers from the maker's site.
