maybe a little software info as well? are you using winXP? and what anti-virus software are you running?
when your pc freezes and the taskmanager shows cpu spiking, did you check what causes the spikes? is it Explorer? or some other stuff.
btw, if it is winxp you're running, did you install SP1? and did you install some service pack named 8530.... or something rather (i know it begins with an "8" for sure).
a lot of ppl have reported that after installing that service pack their xp runs slower, freezes more often, and is just not itself.
1. Uninstalled NIS2003 -----> no differnce.
2. Yes XP PRO
3. How do I check...it happens so quick, I almost miss the spike.
4. Running xp pro with sp2 installed.
5. As for the 8530 or starts with an 8, not in my computer, I looked.
