Laptop locks up

116

Junior Member
I have an Asus S5N running XP Pro that locks up when I'm online sometimes. It doesn't matter whether I use Firefox or IE6. One window/tab or more it doesn't matter. The cpu goes to 100% and doesn't back down. Ctrl Alt Del doesn't respond. I either have to yank the battery or hold the power key down to shut it off and reboot.

Any ideas
 
Post your diagnosis please. If you need instructions, see Luckyboy's Guide For Complete Users. Google for Luckyboy and it's your first choice.
 
The laptop is a Napa platform with an Intel mobile processor. Is there a hotfix for that?
