I don't know much more than my friends computer is shutting down its not that he doesn't have enough ram or his video card it just locks up for no reason. Could it be the power supply? I don't know what else could be locking it up. Its a Pentium 3 with 192 with a 998 MHZ and 192 MB of ram I put more in and it still did the same thing. Its running windows XP Pro. Could his power supply cause his computer to lock up? Maybe his CPU fan and heat sink arn't doing there job well enough. Maybe he needs more cooling fans? I don't know what else could be causing it to just toally lock up. Any ideas or suggestions would be much apprciated. Windows just hangs any ideas on why it is just freezing for no apparen't reason or know a program I can run to catch the error when it freezes? I don't think the even viewer is cathing it although I'm sure it should. I can't figure out whats going on. Thanks for your help sorry again if this is to wrong for this community.
