New Member Posts: 3 OS: XP PRO	I have an 18 month old Acer Aspire laptop that locks up randomly. Sometime at the ACER screen during bootup, other times when running applications. I have replaced the hard drive and reinstalled XP from the rebuild. That has not helped. I would like to try to run sme tests on the motherboard. Does anyone know of shareware I could use or is this kind of software propritary to motherboard makers or computer manufacturers? Thanks

Also you need to run tests on your memory, you can run memtest86 from a CD or floppy, just let it run for a couple of hours and see if it shows any errors. Just Google for: memtest86 +download
