After about two hours of being connected, my computer ceases responding,
and I must do a hot reboot. Sometimes I receive a message about "not enough
resources".

I think that that my problem is explained in the following article, after
monitoring my Kernel Memory usage in Task Manager:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q221926/

But I have Windows XP-Home Edition, not NT for whom the article is intended.

In any case, the recorded "error" in Event Viewer just before the computer
freezing, says that the non-paged pool is empty.

This behaviour appeared only after I installed a newly formatted HD and
defined a new dialup connection (ADSL)

Could somebody please assist me? Or perhaps the problem is other than what I
think?

Thanks,
haim
