    I use Windows XP 2003 on my PC. It works well and never let me down so far. But currently I find that the search tool doesn't work. When I click the search button, the puppy does appear. But he doesn't dig when I start searching. Instead, my PC freezes and I have to restart it.

    What happens with my PC?

    Without more details, it could be one of three things:

    - The hard drive is failing
    - The operating system is corrupt
    - The RAM is failing

    I would scan your hard drive for failure using a free hard drive diagnostic tool. Then I would take check the RAM by pulling out one stick of RAM at a time and seeing if the problem persist. Lastly, I would do a Windows repair using the operating system CD that should have come with your computer.
