Does your hard disk thrash every time you get the freeze?

i know what the problem is:

are you using windows to set up your internet connection? It happened with when windows created my internet connection. If i used 3rd party software, it worked fine, then the problem dissapeared.

[One Armed Scissor]

yeah i let windows do it. no my HD is fine when it does it

GA can u tell me what thrid party bollocks to use and how to etc. please

and what do u mean not enuff money :confused:

[GuardianAnge1]

1. he said memory.

2. do a ctrl alt delete and click on CPU tab, then watch - does the cpu bar shoot up over a stutter? if it does, then i sounds like the same problem as I have. I'll find the name that I use, ill post soon

EDIT: I use a proggy for my wireless card called WLAN a+b+g mini PCI module

[One Armed Scissor]

yeah it does, i dont have wireless LAn card, just a normal wired one,

i have a PCI ethernet cardy ma jig that has the internet connected to it, and the one on my motherboard is for my network thing... i'll talk to you on msn when i get home from college

[Daymare]

if you have two nether cards installed (lan cards) this might cause a conflict when both try to access the internet at the same time. to fix it disable one of them, or do as I did, uninstall the software, and if that dosn't do it, rip it out and smash it with a huge hammer.

[One Armed Scissor]

:s i have 1 lan card with the interweb comeing in, and a ethernet thign on my motherboard whtich is sued for net shareing

[Fusion]

The net sharing is probably 90% of your problem.

Are you on ADSL or Cable?

[One Armed Scissor]

cable... ADSL is through a phoneline isnt it?

[Fusion]

Get yourself a Cable/Broadband router then.
