Lasso (free program of the day) has been showing low memory and making 
adjustments to balance things running on my computer.  The last few days I 
have had the screen go completely black and it can be restored by a Control, 
Alt,Delete.  I often find that my screensaver is not coming on and, again 
CAD, starts things again.  Just now the screen saver was on but when I 
moused over to bring up the desktop it froze and I did the CAD.  I have 
never had this strange behavior before and assume something is going bad but 
I don't know what.  I am running Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 3.  When 
these freezes occur the CAD shows a sharp drop (vertical line) in the CPU 
usage history.  Whats going one guys????
The only change I can think of is the installation of a logitech Webcam a 
few days ago.
