I hate to say it, but my computer is also facing your
difficulties. A friend of mine manages a computer repair
shop, and he said the best options are to go through all
the programs you have recently installed, and delete
them. Most likely they may have a resource bug or
spyware. Another option is to use Windows Update, which
could also fix the problem. Check the other Newsgroups
posts, I think one guy gave a description of that
particular process. Hope this helps.
