Re: WinXP freezes but mouse still OK



I don't know that updating the video driver is what needs to be done.
I would try reinstalling XP and see if it helps.

Good luck.
God Bless!!

I have WinXP SP2 and every so often when clicking on the Start bar, nothing

works except CTRL ALT DEL. When I look in the task list nothing reports as
not responding.

I have tried updating the video driver and it is still the same. I have also
run a virus scan and a hard disk error scan all of which is OK.

Any ideas please?
