andy, another thing to look at is how hot your PC is.  are all fans working 
and blowing air as they should, is any of your PC hot?

Fans can easily stop if your PC is old the fan could have become clogged up 
with dust.

If this is the case though it is likely that damage has been done already as 
you do not give the impression that things get signifficantly worse if the 
PC has been on for a while.

Cheers


Graham

Christopher, I do hope you're wrong; the system does crash a fair bit, and
when it reboots, I get a message saying Windows has recovered from a serious
error or some such wording - Andy

This sounds very serious! Either something in your computer's failing,
or your whole motherboard might be packing up. Normally, the "press
delete to enter setup" message only appears briefly then the system
continues to boot. Sorry Andy, time to take it to the computer hospital,
<smiles>. Hope that helps.
