XP latest updates etc.,
Pent D 3.2ghz w/ 2 gb ram MSI mb with onboard video ( no external car installed)
Lately, as in the last 4 months, when online using Firefox upon switching to another tab or opening a new tab or site the PC hangs. I can jump over to open up a folder or doc but then I cannot close it as it overlaps the prev windows.
I have to go into Task Manager to end the Firefox process to free everything up again.
At this point all the clicks I had done will engage and 'catch up'.
Not sure if this is a FF issue or some setting within XP etc.
Tsk Mgr shows a 50% usage on both Firefox and System idle during the hangs.
Pagin file or Virt mem usage is no where near the max. limit.
My HDD with the OS is booting with an F1 command to continue to boot i.e Seems like it is on it's way out.
