Intermittently my pc will slow down or freeze during the win xp loading screen, after cmos has loaded.
This only happens when cold booting the machine. A while ago the problem was much worse so I sent all my parts back to scan and they checked them and said there was no fault
it is a self build
win xp home
A64 3000 venice 939
Asus A8n-sli-se
leadtech 6800 gt
enermax 600w noistaker
250gb maxator maxline 3
various cd/dvd drives
no ide hd 3 120 mm fans so decent airflow
any suggestions to fix this problem, I'm totally vexed?
