Howdy y'all,
My PC keeps "hanging", freezing suddenly seemingly regardless of activity. The system is an old-ish CPU (XP1800-ish), old-ish mobo, and reasonably good RAM.
I bought these all second hand as a minimal upgrade, as money is tight and i don't use my home computer enough to warrent fancy kit.
The PSU is a generic one, which must be at least 7 years old. I have wondered whether the problem could be with the PSU, perhaps giving unstable voltage rails?
Would this be the first thing to try replacing first?
HELP MUCH APPRECITED!
Cheers
Crawf
