I am not sure why its happening , but the system just keeps crashing all the time. I have tried formatting and installing windows again and again but after you use the computer for some time it just stops working and responding.
Here's my Config:
AMD athlon 2000+
asus nforce motherboard a7n266vm
2*256MB@266Mhz DDR Hynix Ram
60 gb samsung spinpoint HD
Samsung dvd drive
Lately I have added an Xpertvision radeon 9800 pro 256 mb grafix card , but the problem used to occur even before I added this card.
You install Windows xp pro and you might be able to use it fine , like for an hour or so , if you're lucky the hour may extend to few days but then it happens. All of sudden (maybe when you try to open a program , load a game etc) the windows pointer stops and it doesn't respond, the whole system hangs and yo would have to restart the system. The second time this happens quicker than when it happened the first time it happened after installing windows , maybe a few minutes or so. The third time you restart Windows might fail to boot properly.The fourth time you restart , you would have the windows safe\normal boot up screen. Another thing I forgot to mention was that I hear a sound when the system hangs , quite mechanical, must be from the HD and the hd light turns on and stays constant without flickering.I am not sure what the problem might be .I had faced this problem earlier and formatted an installed windows a few times untill my HD crashed but I was able claim the warranty and got this new HD and its the same problem.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks,
Driver
