    Does it happen if you are not connected to net?

    It is also possible to uninstall the service pack if you need to. It could be that the driver for your ethernet/wireless card needs to be updated.

    That's the most confusing post I've read today :)

    Why did Dell it was the Optical Drive? How did they arrive at this conclusion?


    So, you turn it on and don't connect to the 'net and after 15 minutes it's still working.

    Could you please switch it on, not connect to the 'net for 20 minutes or so and then connect to the 'net to see if it dies after 15 minutes?

    While it probably isn't anything malware/virus connected it's always good to just rule them out just in case.
