so a couple of weeks ago i reformatted my computer to try vista, didnt like it so i reformatted back to XP SP2 and right away i noticed a weird behaviour...my computer would randomly pause for like 5 seconds at a time. during this time the HDD activity light was off...and i couldnt move my mouse but if theres music playing in the background it'd keep playing with no problem. sometimes i can move my mouse but i cant click anything, almost like it randomly freezes. i tried a reformat again but the problem persists
i thought it was possibly my chip problem (dual core) but i didnt do anything different from my initial install (before vista) and there were no problems till after vista. even vista was smooth.
can anyone offer any ideas as to what problem it is?
much thanks
