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.
