This machine has been running smoothly for over a year. It's an Abit VP6 MB, 2x PIII 700e's (running @ 1050 each), IBM 40 gig HD, 3-button logitech mouse which is several years old, windows 2000 pro, etc...
A week before Christmas we moved about 30 miles. Since shortly after that my mouse occasionaly freezes up. Everything else seems fine, but the cursor just freezes and I end up rebooting. I haven't taken the time to open up the case yet. At first I thought it was heat relating and my computer was simply locking up,
but it's just the cursor.
Any ideas?
Another problem I am having is I can't stay dialed up. I keep getting disconnect from my ISP. Then I have to keep redialing over and over to reconnect. Sometimes it'll say I am connected but I can't get anywhere. I am suppose to be getting DSL any week now, but who knows how long it will take. I wasn't having any problems the day before the move staying connected to my last ISP. Settings should all be the same.
Thanks
