PC Health
Hi all.
Just a few questions, if I might. I have an HP Pavillion 8570C that is a few years old. It still has the original 19g HD. I upgraded the os from win98 to win2k. I reinstalled the os about 6 months ago. I'm having problems with the pc locking up relatively regularly. I'm wondering what the most likely suspect might be. 1. Original HD going bad. Tested w/ norton and scandisc and found no problems. 2. Bad ram. New norton stuff won't test that like old norton did. Can I still use earlier versions to test ram in win2k? 3. Application conflicts. 4. Something else. Is this a good enough stock machine that I can just start replacing stuff to find the culprit and improve the overall system; ie, new hd, new ram? Thanks in advance. Shawn |
