Hi All ,

I have a machine with Win XP. Everytime i try to do anything, xplore, control panel, my documents etc, i get the following error:

Dr Watson Postmortem Debugger.
Windows Has A Problem And Needs to shutdown! :eek:

Everything freezes, and in task manager i end the Drwatson process, and everything frees up, until i try to browse or execute something. Then I am back to square one.

Please help

Check your event log(administrative tools) for Acpi Errors. I had the same problem and a Bios update fixed it.
