Thanks for reminding me to do a virus check - clean!

But in the geeks thing, gave up when I got into PC World or whatever.

A new problem!

Something zapped the double click on the mouse. I tried everything to reset it but couldn't find any way to do it. Eventually used Errorguard to reset the registry to an earlier date. Problem cured.

Tim,
I would look at where your pc is situated (from the pic.).
It must be suffereing from 'lack of air circulation' at least!

Good thought.  It's on a shelf with a 2" air gap at the back, nothing at the sides.

What should it have?

Tim,
I would think that you have internal case (fan)s.
Usually, it(they) suck air from the front & expel out the back. There needs to be a reasonable space at the rear of your case as the psu fan has also to vent heat from the unit.
If your psu overheats & blows, it could take your mobo/cpu etc. with it.
Only a thought.
