Windows XP 2000, MTU built rack mount. Ran over two years without one problem. One day while using the windows media player it would get into a song and reboot the PC. Sometimes you would get 20 seconds into it sometimes 30 minutes. I play DJ and KJ at all my gigs. I use the Media Player and like it for DJ. The hoster saved me that night because it worked flawlessly, and I used it for the DJ to finish the night. I tried and tried to resolve the problem. Ultimately, I wound up taking it out of the DJ cart I mounted it in, and brought it in put it on line, upgraded from WMP10 to WMP11, went from Hoster 3.317 to 3.321 all is well. Kind of like the meat in a burger at a fast food joint, it's a mystery. Defragging is good, if you still have a lot of the clutter that came with the pc I would get rid of it first. Things like the student version of microsoft whatever. You don't go online, no problem you don't need all the extra ways to get on the net all I ever use is the big blue E. Sample pictures, videos, music, all warning sound except for the PCs internal battery. Programs you don't use, most often you don't need. They take up space and time.
