After computer has been on for about 2 hours, I can no longer enter in URLs in address window. When I do, IE just pauses forever. I can use the Favorites and go to those links with no problem. I can do a Google search with the Google Toolbar with no problem. Just cannot enter in a URL.
Similar problem when I pull up Win Explorer. It will show my C: drive but not my D drive (another partition) or my other drives (CD, CDRW, ZIP and mapped drive). Also shows My Computer, A drive and My Network Places and My Documents. If I wait about 5 minutes, the D drive and the others appear but I cannot access them.
P4 – 2.2 GHz w/ 256 mb RAM. Intel D850emv2 MB
Task Manager Processes does not show anything taking up CPU time other than System Idle.
If I reboot, everything is fine for a while. I have already reformatted and reinstalled to try and cure this problem.
Would love to avoid junking this PC since it is not that old.
Thanks,
Bill
