My computer locks up and I have to reboot to get computer on line again. It seems to happen when I am up on a web site after a few minutes. I get the message that:

Unable to find required data for screen saver. Please download and reinstall the game or switch screen saver.

Missing File c:\\ progam files\ big kahun reef\ data 3. bin

I would appreciate any suggestion on what to do.

Thanks,

The missing file is not an essential Windows file, it's part of the "Big Kahuna Reef" game and screensaver.
You must either uninstall that or re-install it. Either option should remove the error.
There's a download page for it here: http://www.jakeludin...una_reef_2.html

You could instead select a different screensaver altogether in Display settings (or select "none" for screensaver). If you have an LCD monitor or laptop the need for a screensaver is much less than for a CRT monitor. LCD/TFT screens do not suffer from static image burn-in as CRT monitors do.
These days screensavers are really only for entertainment (and making money from those who can't resist buying them).
