I am having a problem with my mouse freezing for 10-20 seconds; there is a
"clang sound" that comes through my speakers and the system returns to
normal. I am running Windows XP with SP2 on an HP pavilion 7965 with 512
mb.
When this happens, I can still stroll through a document, spreadsheet, etc
by using the up/down arrow keys; therefore, the system is not frozen. Also,
I have hit the ctl,alt,del key to see if anything funnies running at time.
Everything looks normal. It usually happens (but not always) when Outlook
Express or Internet Explorer is open.
I was having this problem before I installed sp2.
Using Norton System works 2002 that has been kept up to date via internet
subscription.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance,
Tom D.
