    Question System locks up ???

    Computer: Dell Precision 410 MT Intel P-II Work Station
    Operating System: Windows XP Home edition Version 2002

    RAM: 256MB ECC SDRAM
    Drive A: 3 1/2" 1.44MB
    Drive C: 10GB SDSI
    Drive D: 5 NEC CD-ROM

    Problem is system lock up, which seems to be related to mouse movement and/or clicks?
    When locked up, ctrl,alt,del not functional. Must hit the reset button to restart Windows?

    Problem is intermittent !!!???

    New problem?

    If so try a System Restore to a point when all was well.

    start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore


    If that does not help look at your Event Viewer:

    How to view and manage event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

    It would appear that I have yet to figure out just how to use this site ??? I didn't know my first question had been received. So I asked it the second time adding additional information...

    Sorry about the upper case.... being an old (77yrs) RTTY operator it jsust seemed natural. All messages were transmitted in upper case....

    I have tried system restore with out much luck. The event viewer is new to me.. I'll give that a shot.

    Thanks for the suggestion !!
