randomly...it freezes up completly. Somewhere I read it was named an
infinite loop...
reset helps. It is, as mentioned before, completly random. Otherwise I
usually find a patern and can locate the problem, but here it I am clueless.
version of windows xp. It's the version I used before I bought a new
harddisk and it's still resident on that disk. That old disk is now set as
slave and it doesn't boot up at the moment. I can still boot it up, but than
I have to switch the HD from slave to master and it then runs fine...no
crashes... with the new HD still active as slave!
now set as slave, the new win xp crashes randomly.
problem emerged from the point I started using this new disk (as a master).
when it is set as slave and the old set as master, it runs fine....
I was bruning a cd with Wmplayer and my system crashed... and the cd kept
burning and it finalised without a hitch, while I couldn't move anything.

should I be using cable select? The problem also accurs when I boot on the new disk, with the old removed.
