Kelly (MS-MVP) in the news:microsoft.public.windowsxp.general forum
suggested I pose my question to this NG. I sure hope you can help. Here's
my problem:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm running Win XP Pro, SP-1.
The cursor freezes occasionally, when:
1. An update icon appears in Systray & a bubble for that icon is displayed.
2. I right-click to get a drop-down menu.
3. After Win XP loads the desktop, the cursor may freeze and I have to power
down and power-up to clear the PC. On occasion I have to do this power-down
& power-up several times.
I've run AVG on my system, and AdAware & Spybot, and Spy Sweeper. Nothing
shows up. I've been away form the PC for about 3-weeks. When I powered it
up this morning there were updates available. I installed them:
1. KB890923
2. KB893066
3. KB892944
4. KB890830
5. KB893806
6. KB 890859
7. MS Windows Installer 3.1
The problems started shortly thereafter.
Can anyone help me?
