I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop running WinME and have recently installed
a new 40GB HDD, "Ghosted" from my old and working, but full original10GB
HDD.
I also have installed that German fan program that monitors temp and
controls the fans.
When I surf the Internet I am constantly asked at numerous sites if I want
to install Macromedia FlashPlayer 7.0.
When I answer YES and initiate the download, my computer freezes/locks up
(though I still have the mouse), with the fans stepping up and running at
high speed with temp at 57C. (possibly going higher because the computer IS
locked up?) I must do a hard shutdown even with the mouse cursor moving!
As far as I can tell, this Macromedia Flash Player7.0 installation lock up
is my only problem since my HDD upgrade.
I know I *HAD* a Macromedia Flash Player installed PRIOR to HDD upgrade. I`m
not sure whether or not it was 7.0
Anybody here have any ideas as to what may be my problem and it`s solution?
