Heres my problem:
Every so often, usually after i have been doing one thing and leaving every other program idle, or leaving the computer idle for longer than ~2 Min, the instant I open My Computer, click a back button in internet explorer, or even enter a console command in a game I play, the computer will "pause" or "freeze" for 1 or 2 seconds. Its hard to fully explain this problem, but if im in a game it will freeze, repeat the sound(s) thats playing in the game for this short time then resume.
Im not entirely sure if this is directly related to windows XP, but this has become a very annoying problem, and is making me very, VERY, angry :twisted:
Specs:
Pentium 4 3.00 GhZ w/HT
512 Mb DDR RAM
Ati Radeon 9200m
80 Gig HDD [Toshiba] using FAT32
Windows XP Professional w/No SP
Ive tried using SP1/SP2 but those did nothing. I have tried re-installing the OS, and I think i tried reformatting w/re partitioning. Im out of ideas, hopefully someone can help!
