Hello,
A few times over the past week or so, my X60 has randomly crashed - i.e., completely froze, to the point where I have to press and hold the power button until the system resets. What's strange (or at least seems so) is that when windows XP Pro restarts, it boots up regularly, and does not mention anything about the crash. It seems to only happen when I'm utilizing the wireless connection, and especially when I'm using FireFox.... (when using firefox, it does ask if I would like to restore my session after I reboot). I tend to keep several tabs open, and have several other programs running, such as Trillian, the ThinkCenter system software, Windows Live OneCare, Symantec Security Client, Windows defender, Diskkeeper and Windows search.
Has anyone else had a similar problem, or know if any of the programs listed are known to conflict with any of the thinkcenter software that could be overloading the system? This may be a bit of a stretch, but in thinking about this, I'm wondering if it has something to do with diskkeeper or windows live or windows search scanning the computer in the background - does anyone know if this is even a plausible idea?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
some info on my system... Intel Centrino Duo T2400 @ 1.83GHz, 512 MB Ram
