Hey,

Im new here so greetings to you all. My problem is that when i download my computer begins to become unstable and eventually crashes. I have recently bought the computer. Do you think its a hard drive problem? although my harddrive is a new Hitachi Deskstar T7K250 NCQ 250GB. I running on xp. I would apreciate any help cheers.

Thanks a lot,
Simon

Ok thanks, Its reboots yeah but sometimes the taskbar moves to the top after leaving it downloading over night and i have to reboot??

simon_xazza · 12 Feb 2006 at 20:20

Yeah, Im clean on that front. Ive tried changing my wintv card to a differnt slot because i thort it might be a conflict with that but dint have any luck with that. Ive totaly run out of ideas now :confused:

Well firstly i use Mozila but the problem is consitent when downloading with any program. I get the problem on bit lord and limewire for example. And yes i have sp2 installed you really think that will help? I guess i could give it a go.

Thanks a lot
