hi all,
my problem is two fold. Im working on a dimension 8400 with a gb of ram and a pt4 processor, im connected to the broadband throughh an external modem using the win XP pro OS. Recently the internet has stop connecting whislt im on line, which is always as im broadband.... it just disconects. I have to un plug my modem and shutdown the system and reboot it. However the last few times ive tried it windows has not shut down the machine. It gets to the stage where it says "windows is shutting down" with the windos logo against the blue background and it freezes. the mouse andis still active but the keyboard is not. I end up having to shut the system down at the source by holding in the power buttom for a few seconds. i know this cant be good for the system anyone got any ideas what the problem is and how to address it? thanks for any help
