Windows XP Froze And Stuck

Saturday

Up North again courtesy of Volvo and the offending computer is working, fully reformatted and XP reinstalled, once again locked down tight as a shark's ass - yes that's right - watertight.

That means absolutely nothing on this machine. Within a week it will be locking up and refusing to boot again. Beats me what Bogs junior does to it. He will always deny foolhardy surfing or downloading....

Must be a hardware problem but it seems to be working ok now.

Last time it "froze and then rebooted itself and got stuck". Sorry about all the technical jargon but froze and stuck are very common terms in Windows households.

Just noticed that when we installed about a week ago an error message came up after a reboot but XP appeared to fix itself. Should have wiped the drive and started again right then.
