I am wondering if anyone has encountered the same problems. I have installed dual boot with Mandrake 10 and windows XP. When i turn on my computer if either frozes before the LILO or restarts after i have chosen the operating. Recently when Windows was chosen the computer didn't load XP at all.
In addition while i am working with linux, the computer frozes at any time, or just reboots. i would appreciate any help from people who have had the same experience with their PC.
If Linux is freezing, suddenly rebooting and struggling to reach the LILO prompt, I would suspect either bad memory, bad CPU, bad something else on the motherboard, or maybe a bad disk.
Good luck, Tim.
