Will,

Thanks for the reply. Sorry that others felt the need to follow with
nonsense like elementary school kids.

I had searched the link that you recommended but none of those issues had
anything to do with my problems. Most were with Windows 2000 or Windows
2003-based servers. Now this problem is happening more and more often.
Usually when the machine is idle. It happened 4 times last night. All
power saving features have never been activated. This one is getting real
upsetting.

Thanks for any help.
Johnny

|

|
| Do you think it could have anything to do with IRQ sharing?
|
| I have:
| ATI All-In-Wonder 9800 Pro (4.4 Catalyst drivers)
| 1 gig of 266 ddr ram
| Windows XP Sp1
| Pioneer DVD reader
| Sony DVD writer
| 1 Gig Jaz Drive
| 2 hard drives on PCI card (one being the boot drive)
| 2 hard drives on main board
| Epson 925 printer
| Epson Perfection 3170 scanner
| Creative Audigy2 ZS (latest drivers)
|
| Any help would be greatly appreciated.
|
| My best,
| Chuck
