My computer was making a weird noise in the power supply housing. I think it was the fan. I turned it on and it brought up a black screen with the system properties, ram, etc. on it and asked me to press f1 to setup and f2 to resume. I clicked on f2, to resume. It took about a half-hour to load the loading properties window, after taking forever to get to the login screen, and then it waited forever to display the desktop picture. But then it suddenly flashed a one to two second long blue screen with a bunch of stuff I couldn't read on it - because it was so short of a display. The computer then restarted, like normal, the noise was gone, and brought up a screen asking if I wanted to send the error report about the serious system error, not critical as it did once before. So I connected to the internet and sent it. However, my internet connected at the slowest it has ever before, even though it connected quickly, its speed was slowest. I am very curious as to what would have caused this error. I went to the details, it had the minidump file and one of the files in my local settings temp folder listed. If anyone has any info, please email it to me. Thanks, Arthur A. Aaberg Thanks agian, in advance

add more ram up to 256 meg, then run the system restore back to when all was okay
