It seems the problem is fixed. Ran diagnostics, failed and wouldn't continue, can't remember the error code. Called Dell support who after much consultation said to remove one of the RAM boards. I started with the easy one to access (through the little door on the bottom (the other is under the keyboard)). Problem solved, runs like a charm on 2GB RAM, Dell sent a new RAM board so I'm back up to 4GB and all's well. Well! It seems the problem is fixed.

I've applied all the fixes Vivek has made except disable the NVidea drivers, upgraded BIOS to A14. The computer is ruining my life, the power button is d@mn near worn out. I'm writing this from another computer as I'm now running the Dell Memory Diagnostic on the D830 and it has been running for 8 hours has has not yet completed the first loop. I bought the computer Mar '08 and it ran fine for about a year, then about 6 months ago I noticed the fan started running continuously and the problems began. I've tried Iolo Mechanic and PC Tools which seemed to help for a couple of hours but the slow downs and freezes would return after an hour or so. Recently the computer has shut down on the "high temperature" hardware function. I have a new hard drive and a copy of Win7 Ultimate sitting in boxes ready to do a clean install and leave me the option to swap back to the old system, as I still have to do work (I'm semi-retired, working now from home, but need a reliable laptop to bring to client's office and when I travel). I was intrigued by Mikestam's comments and will tackle cooling issues before I install the new HD & Win7. Right now I travel with an Acer Aspire 1 Netbook, which I find blindingly fast compared to the D830! I'll post results. Derek I have a Dell D830, 4GB RAM, 160GB HD, XP, NVidea Quadro NVS 140M.
