I may, a big may, have finally figured it out part of it. What I have been
experiencing particularily with the internet connection using a high speed
modem is constant problems connecting, and when on, freeze ups. I've moved
the modem further away, and so far so good. However would the modem cause
the system to freeze up? Also, when shutting down I don't get the proper
shut down screen, just a blinking cursor, after which will invoke a scan
disk at start up. Furthermore, I find at times the system is slow. It all
seems random. Sometimes it's great, more than half the time it's a pain!!!

Is there a newsgroup like this one that is dedicated to troubleshooting
PCs?
I've had a problem one and would like to get some help/advice from other
opinions. Thanks.

What's wrong with the PC?
