Message-ID: Date: 24 Jun 91 13:08:44 GMT Sender: newsuser@lth.se (LTH network news server) Distribution: comp Organization: EFD, Lund Inst. of Technology, Lund, Sweden Lines: 17 Facts: 286, 1Mb, Dos 5.0, Win 3.0, himem, smartdrv. Problem: I can run windows for about one minute - then the following happens. The bell starts beeping just as if the keyboard buffer should be full and the keyboard doesn't work. The computer is still running, but very very slow (as if it had to take care of lots of keyboard interrupts). Ctrl+alt+del does of course not work, and hitting the reset button reboots the machine, but the keyboard keeps beeping. Power off is the only thing that helps. It looks like a hardware problem, but I don't have any keyboard problems when I'm outside windows. I'm confused... -- Per Foreby (perf@efd.lth.se) Lund Institute of Technology, Sweden
