My computer constantly freezes on me for no apparent reason. It has 512 MB SDRAM PC-133 and a GeForce 2 Pro 64 Meg DDR video card. I've tried replacing the video card with another equal to it and there's no effect, I've reformatted to XP and 2000 and there's no effect either. I can't figure out what's wrong with it at all. If you need more specs, ask.

usual things to try are a better heatsink/fan on the processor, if that doesn't help a new power supply might,a power supply that is going bad can cause all kinds of problems. get an 3prong outlet checker and see if your ac power might be to blame. some people have luck using vxd.fix vxd.fix info download site
