Have tried everything, and I mean everything, updated drivers, switched memory, turned acceletion down in video, updated IE 5.5 to 6, had mobo tested, reseated cards, everything that any magazine or internet site ( the ones that dont freeze up) can offer as advise, as well as newsgroups. Its funny because it only does this in certain sites,like any Windows sites, especially Knowledge Base and there are other sites it never locks up in. Help and Support is the same, after browsing for a while it too locks up. I can usually ALT/CTrl/DEL out of it but sometimes not. This is a good one guys, lets see how you do LOL and thanks.

Windows doesn't like changing hardware, it likes to be clean installed if you change, especially the mobo. This might be causing the problems (although I don't really think it is...) just a suggestion Mike.	Guest (0)

Explorer 5.5 is the most stable newer doesnt mean best.	Guest (0)
