hey guys
my system configuration is-
Biostar ta785ge-128m
Amd athlon x2 240
local psu 400w
Kingston 2gb ddr2 ram
CRT monitor 17''
Seagate 1TB 7200.12
Windows XP
My Problem:-
I have been using this system for past 2years and had no problem till last week. When i started my system it took 20mins to boot and while using the system it frequently freezes while using 2 or more application Ex: Firefox Mozilla & VLC player.It freezes for a good amount of 120 to 180seconds. It is worse when I open games like Price of Persia, Americas Army etc and software like Photoshop, Illustrator because system does not respond at all and I have to close these programs via control panel.
Technical Details:-
HDD is at 40-41degrees.
I did few things to repair my system before posting here,
For testing hardware problems i used certain programs like, Burn In Test and Memtest86 these programs showed no error after the test.
So now I am out of ideas
can any one say what the problem is?
BTW there are certain things l would like to mention,
Did I miss anything?
