I have task manager processes running. When my computer completely
stops working, system idle and all other process stop incrementing CPU
time.
Any suggestions as to most likely problem? CPU? MB? PS?
intel d865perl, p42.8 1G matched ram. W2K.

maybe the code showing whether they're incrementing has died

and everything else -- all at the same time.

Read your other post on USB. It's not USB. My suggestion is to backup all
your data on an external drive, completely wipeout the internal hard drive
(destroying the partition), then install a fresh virgin copy of Windows XP.
Ditch W2K.

Get and boot to Ubuntu 7.04 i386 DT. Then run the memory
tester over night. That would rule out cpu, mb, ram and ps if
it doesn't lock up.

later.....

Thanks --- link? I guess I good 'look it up'.
Will it test ps and memory in standby?? That may well be my problem.


Sorry for the late response.

You can only really test a ps with a ps tester, a piece of hardware.
They are cheap you can get them over the Internet. However, I have
found that even if the tester "passed" the ps, it still may not boot or
work reliably so having a known good ps as an alternative is best.

Memory is not tested in standby it is tested actively.

Goto http://www.ubuntu.com to get the download.

later.....

Ultimate boot Windows Memory Test, extended test mode, runs successfully
all night. No errors. Basic CPU, normal PS, MB, and RAM all OK. Could
be that HD does not always spin up from boot, standby, or hibernate.

Western Digital diagnostics show no problems.
