FWIW, this problem is not tied to laptops or Compaq or IBM or anything else
other than Microsoft Windows XP! I have two desktop systems, both with more
than 1 Gb of RAM, both custom built from top-of-the-line (at the time)
components (but very few common components between the systems -i.e.
different MB, processors, memory,...) yet they both exhibit this problem. The
only group which will be able to fix this problem is Microsoft.
I wouldn't mind it happening quite so much if the system reported the
failure to Microsoft every time it happened (like it can do with application
crashes) 'cause at least that way I know they would be reminded of it (and
hopefully annoyed by it, even slightly) every time it happened.
