SYMPTOMS
When you install Windows XP on a computer that uses an ASUS P2B motherboard, the computer may stop responding (hang). The Processes tab in Task Manager may show that the CPU is using 100 percent of the system resources.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because of a hardware problem with the ASUS P2B motherboard.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, turn off the Wake up if mouse is moved setting in the computer's BIOS. Refer to the computer documentation for more information, or contact the computer manufacturer if you need assistance with changing this setting.
