[AT] OT Computer question

[charlie hill]

Cecil,  I think I figured out the problem.  The Microsoft site says my 
crashes are caused by an new hardware device that has been installed on my 
computer.   The only thing that can be is my weather station and the adapter 
cable I use to get the data into the computer.
Here is what I think is happening.   I leave this computer up and running 
all the time but it goes to a hybernate state after about 15 minutes of non 
use.  However, the weather station is transmitting data to it every few 
seconds.   I think that might be causing the problem.   Solution,  Shut down 
the weather station software when I am not at the computer.  The weather 
station will store the data internally until I down load it to the computer 
anyway so there is no real reason to keep it feeding to the computer.
