Hello,
I have system freezes almost daily. I have checked everything that I know of. I have a Biostar MOBO with integrated sound and video.
I wondered if it could be my video or sound but, since they are both integrated I don't know how to determine if they are the culprits.

System freeze could be cause by a lot of stuff. The one you named is like 1 out of millions. When does it usually freezes? Are you doing a lot of process, if you are it's not a bright idea, because you only have 128RAM, it's a barely min. for XP, even tho. you can install XP with 64RAM, 128 really lags the hell out of you. add more RAM to have better proformance and it will also fun much smoother between 256RAM and 128RAM, but 512RAM is what most people recommeneded.

what are you doing when it freezes? Is there any predictability in the system freezes?

Thanks for the responses. I'm not a real computer whiz.. but anyway. It will freeze when I'm only rinning one program (that's all I usually run) Sometimes it will freeze when I have the media player playing music..
I just don't know what to do next..
