when you go to SYSTEM INFORMATION in SYSTEM TOOLS, under VIEW, you can select to view SYSTEM HISTORY for hardware software etc.
I had and have an occasional freezing problem and I noticed in SYSTEM HISTORY that XP is constantly changing the addresses for my motherboard, an Epox nFORCE 4 nVidia AMD ATX m/b.
Is there anyway, not being a programmer, to make any sense out of this? I saw this and updated my m/b drivers which really seemed to help, but not at the 100% level. I thought I had it fixed but it came back after about a week.
