My computer seems to have a mind of it's own and randomly crash. I originally thought that it was due to lack of memory, but I just stuck in 512mb of ram just now and it's still crashing. Then I thought it could be a clash between codecs, but that couldn't be the sole cause of the crashes, could it?

My system specifications are:

AMD Athlon XP 2200+ (T-Bred), 1.8GHz
Syntax SV266A mobo, with onboard sound and LAN
WinXP Professional 5.1 SP2
768MB DDR2100 RAM with C2
WD 80GB HDD
Netgear Wireless PCI Adapter

I then read about how SP2 can cause similer problems, so I uninstalled SP2, and the problems still remain.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

edit:
I also thought it could be a conflict on the WiFi card and the onboard LAN. But I disabled the LAN in the BIOS, and took the WiFi card out and uninstalled the drivers.

I also have onboard sound, but that is disabled as I have a PCI soundcard.
