Then, it will tell me that the system has recovered from a serious error. The error will quote two files-sysdata.dmp and another file. Even those applications which takes only low percentage of the cpu will cause the computer to restart when run in full screen.Another thing, sometimes when i start up my computer, it will tell me that some file is missing/corrupted and needs to be reinstalled usng windows os cd. The file is different every time. This error keeps recurring. I tried reinstalling my OS several times but it was still the same. I found a way around this problem though, i just kept restarting my computer and it will eventually start up.I bought my computer in 2006 , but recently changed the ram, though it didn't help much. My previous ram was a 1gb TwinMOS ram, if it helps.I hope someone can provide me with a solution to solve the problems. 1 person needs an answerI do too

This sounds like hardware problems - I suggest running a memory test utility such a MemTest86 for a few hours to see what it reports, and also testing the hard drive with the manufacturer's test utility. (Since Maxtor no longer exist, use the Seagate utilityhttp://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/downloads/seatools - I prefer the DOS version)You may have overheat problems - check the fans on your machine are unobstructed, clean, and spinning freely.-- Noel Paton | Nil Carborundum Illegitemi | CrashFixPC | The Three-toed Sloth
