Yet forever, thank Microsoft. There's a documented bug that windows only works part of the time with full 3D acceleration. Check the knowledge base, and they tell you that if you have problems with periodic lockups, turn off acceleration. There'sno ready fix available that I'm certain of, but you may want to check in on microsoft.com and find out for sure.
