Another ShutDown Victim
Hi
I have spent the past 4 hours TRYING to run a full Stinger scan, Norton, ad aware and even trend micro's online scan. Not ONE of them will complete before my computer shuts down and I'm taking a chance on getting registered and this in before disappearing again.
My system info:
Windows XP PRO
AMD Athlon(tm) processor 1.4 GHz
BIOS: VIA694-42302e31 Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG
Bus Type: PCI,ISA
Ports: 1 Parallel, 2 Serial
512MB Ram with 31% currently in use
Hard Disk: 40GB, 120GB
Video: 1024 x 768 in 32 bit, NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX MX 400 Ver 5.1
I apologize if any of that is useless but hey, I am for the most part self taught and only on a computer for just over 4 years.
Fans are clean, plus have external fans in area to keep even cooler than the 4 internal ones. All system checks: virus scan, defrags, etc are current *saturday*.
any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated and please, if you start talking bios or registry or anything in that general area, use newbese. Thanks in advance!!
