Well, I thought I had responded to Bhahar84's last post but I don't see it here. So I will respond again. I did effectively return to the Factory setting. I did this last Saturday and I haven't had any crashes (lockups) since. I have run it 24 hrs per day and no problems (knock on wood). I do notice that the computer does not go into sleep mode even though I have selected to go to sleep after 2 hrs of inactivity (except for the first time after a bootup). There may be "things" going on that effectively keeps restarting the "period of inactivity". Interesting, but so far so good on the no crashes through 6 days. HP will call me the next three Saturdays to check up on it.
