    Ok. so i just got my new parts in and put together another build i got XP working as well as the internet. i only had it running for aobut 20 minutes when this problem occured. it started to freeze up. nothing seemed to work or respond and if it did it took a while. it cant b spyware or anything cuz the only thing on the hard drive is the OS and some drivers. Any one know what the problem could be?

    you may want to try a memory test ... it's possible the RAM is bad or your mobo is finicky w/ RAM
