You might also want to go to Windows Update and get SP3.

yes, the restart keeps chaning my resolution....and what's SP3?

SP3 is the latest service pack for XP. You have SP2.

It can be found at Windows Update. That is under your All Programs list.

I still suspect heat.

Have you opened up the computer and looked inside?

no i dont think i ever opened my comp...i dunno how -_-

What is the make and model?

ummm...................i have no idea? where do iyou check?

Look for a label somewhere on the case or ask someone else who might know.

You could try this scan under System Model:

Belarc .................................................. .

i think it might be a Intel Celeron...but the system model says 'no info available' O__O (i got this from the belarc thing)

Is it a Dell?

Is it an HP?

IBM?

Anything on the case?

If not is there someone else there you can ask?

Family?

um......i have absoluty no idea...there is nothing on the case....and my family dont know/dont remember either....i think it's intel? or is that not one of the possibilitys?? (-_-' sorry for being completely computer iliterate)
