Hello - I've got a Shuttle ST61G4 and a Philips 190S monitor (i.e. 19"
TFT) running Windowze-XP-Pro. I've downloaded all the correct drivers
for the monitor.

The shuttle keeps "freezing" - by this I mean that I am working on it
and the whole thing freezes, the mouse/keyboard/screen all freeze up
and the only way out is a reboot via the power on/off button.

How do I work out what the problem is? I am assuming it is an
incompatibility with the monitor....?

Thanks, Ruth

It could be one or more of the following: a program crashing, hardware
driver, memory, overheating, power supply, hard drive. If it's an
older pc, bad caps.

It won't be the monitor.

Hi Stephen - OK - thanks - I'll try to start eliminating all the other
possibilities!

What do you mean by "bad caps"?

Cheers, Ruth

Bad capacitors, usually indicated by them leaking or swelling.
