I have task manager processes running. When my computer completely
stops working, system idle and all other process stop incrementing CPU time. Any suggestions as to most likely problem? CPU? MB? PS? intel d865perl, p42.8 1G matched ram. W2K. |

My suggestion is to backup all your data on an external drive, completely wipeout the internal hard drive (destroying the partition), then install a fresh virgin copy of Windows XP. Ditch W2K. |

Sorry for the late response. You can only really test a ps with a ps tester, a piece of hardware. They are cheap you can get them over the Internet. However, I have found that even if the tester "passed" the ps, it still may not boot or work reliably so having a known good ps as an alternative is best. Memory is not tested in standby it is tested actively. Goto http://www.ubuntu.com to get the download. later..... |

PS? intel d865perl, p42.8 1G matched ram. W2K. Ultimate boot Windows Memory Test, extended test mode, runs successfully all night. No errors. Basic CPU, normal PS, MB, and RAM all OK. Could be that HD does not always spin up from boot, standby, or hibernate. |
