hello,

my pc running win2k, locks up after sitting idle for a time. I have a hunch its something to do with the 2nd hard drive i installed recently. My question is ... Is there anywhere in win2k, that logs all errors that occur, where i might verify my hunch?

Right click 'My Computer' and select Manage. You will see the event viewer near the top under system tools. Thats the first place to look. You can also look at c:\windows\minidump but good luck reading that stuff. The event log is probably the best resource for problem determination. Hope this helps.

Hi,

The Event Viewer will probably have the info you are looking for.

Start\Control Panel\Adminstrative Tools\Event Viewer

I hope this helps
