I have the power option set so that the hard drive never turns off. Also, I dont
think that I have very many things running in the background - one of the first things
I did when this started to occur was to turn off most programs in the background.
I am curious about the Norton suggestion, though. I have only started to use Norton
in the past couple months, and it is the ONLY program that I have recently installed
that I did not try to uninstall - who would think that their virus software was causing
crashes?!?
Can anyone else enlighten me about possible problems cause by Norton? Thanks.
