I ran CCleaner and it found alot! Luckily its free and cleared everything. Still no crash.

No new hardware has been installed. And no new drivers have been installed.

Where would I check for these? UPDATE: Since 1:45 CST the Event Log has reported no errors. No 15016 or 8003. So far so good.

Since my last post i have started WoW and so far no lockups at 3 PM. So far so good.

Since my first post the pc has not locked up. A good sign. I have gotten the Master Browser error to stop showing up completely.

It isnt on sleep mode currently and hasnt been. When i press the restart button it immediately begins to reboot. It doesnt do the shut down process on the screen as there is no movement. 425 GB of free space out of 465.

The programs vary from Word 2007, Internet Explorer, World of Warcraft, Windows Media Player. The only 4 programs I ever virtually use as a college student. One for school, information gathering, entertainment, and music. Seriously, Im at a loss for words as to what can be going wrong. And the sad thing is im a Computer Science Major .

I can say that when I leave the apartment to go to class when it just idles it doesnt lock up, only when im in a program or performing an action on the pc does it lockup. That being said, It only locks up when im "using" it. What exactly do you mean by "solo"?

There is no server on the LAN just two home pcs. I disabled the Computer Browser on the other computers Services Tab so that should stop the Master Browser error from coming up. Any other ideas on what might cause it to lock up?

My PC randomly locks up during a Windows session. No matter what I am doing, Word, Games, Internet, Music. There is no correlation that can be seen between which program might cause the lock up. These lockups have been happening more frequently as of late and have happened a total of anywhere from 20-35 times in the past two weeks forcing a cold boot every time. No response from the mouse, no CTRL ALT DEL ability. Nothing. It is very frustrating. Event ID: 8003 - Unable to initialize the security package Kerberos for server side authentication. The data field contains the error number. Event ID: 15016 - The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer <PC Name> that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{0B8923B4-381B-492D-ABA7-ED65738FFE. The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced. First off let me say that I have run the Memory Diagnostics Tool which returned no errors in memory. I have updated all drivers including sound, video, and motherboard. The mobo has been flashed once already. I have done a virus scan and none were found. Temperature readings were fine so its not overheating. Dxdiag has found no problems. Any ideas on what I could do to stop this? Any response is appreciated.
