Several times a day my XP applications just lock up. That is, it suddenly does NOTHING. If I leave it alone, it comes back after several seconds or a minute which seems like hours.

Any ideas of what caused this to suddenly happen? Any ideas on how to fix it?  

  :eek:

Try asking your question on this web site: http://www.windowsbbs.com/

Our goal is to help people get rid of Windows rather than helping them fix it.  Or you could wait for XP User #666 to help you with your problem.  He is the one person on this site that blindly pushes the use of XP. I have a feeling he really doesn't know anything about computers so he will likely not help.

rosemary ulrich:
thank you, I will do that.
I'm sorta stuck with MS as this is a company computer and they can't seem to fix it. Duh, like I am surprised.

voidmain:
Heh heh, they must have bought in to "Licensing 6.0" I guess huh?

Doctor V:
Alot of people are forced to use Windows at their company, but just because windows is on the computer dosn't mean that it has to be used exclusively now does it.  Is there anything stopping you from setting up a dual boot.  Especially if you have an extra partition on your hard drive (for example a C: drive and a D: drive), setting up a dual boot system  can be easy.  With Mandrake Linux, it is so easy that you could do it even if you were a 'grandma'.  No more freezing, no more spying.  Then if you need windows, you can always go back to it.  Though, over time you'll find more and more that you actually don't need it.  Need windows format documents, use Star-Office, need web browsing, e-mail and stuff, use Mozilla.  All set.
