Sorry if I am repeating a past post but does this happen to anyone else or has it in the last couple of days?
It has been okay for an hour but chat seems to aggravate it.......
Cheers,
Michelle.

When you say "crash" do you mean it hangs?
Mine seems to sometimes give a fatal memory crash when I click on a page link and my PC powers off
only happens on S/Net
Oh and yeah pages sometime take forever to load up aswell.

I do apologise for not clarifying - yes the pages take ages to load and then slowly one by one freeze and give an error message, yet as soon as they crash, it loads straight back up again 
and then repeats the cycle.
Of course it is very annoying when typing longer than one sentence posts and losing them
Anyone else experienced this?

I get the similar type of problem but a lot greater when running SN. SN hangs in the background and then takes other open windows down with it slowly.
Problem eased when I upped memory from 128Mb to 384Mb but it still happens every so often. I either get this or the screen just freezes and needs a reboot (have you noticed how the scandisk screen accuses you of the fault when it's locked up itself - smug m*cr*s*ft g*ts)
Any ideas for a cure? I used to think that the pc was falling over having to shunt so much data around to keep up with the new posts / counts etc gooing on in the background when you switched threads etc (muppet section especially 'Chelle
)

Sounds like you are all in need of a good system clean up to me.
It's no help whatsoever but mine runs fine, never crashes or goes slow on SN at all (unless SN is down 
)
Just wipe your PC and reinstall everything. There's probably loads of crap in your registry that will slow it down.....

Now that would be impressive - if it's her new PC, then she's only had three weeks or so!

Maybe it ain't that then
Unless all that muppeteering has already worn it out
Or, it was badly set up to start with I've seen some naffly set up systems in my time.
I <I>always</I> wipe any new PC after first checking it works. Get rid of all the factory kak that they image onto it. I've even seen PCs dumped with the wrong system drivers for the hardware in the machine

Chill dude I knew if I wrote something like that I would be treading on toes
Must have been someone sneaking in and messing it up on purpose then (he says quickly backtracking )
No qualifications, just a geek
Should that be <I>Compaq ****</I> ?
