WinXP you said didn't you. :) your problem could just lie there win xp relies heavely on acpi managment now the evil lies in your Motherboards bios winxp tend's to have a thing for screwing up when you use an older version of acpi and knowing IBM who's bios revisions have been scary for years now this could be the case see if there is a bios update available for your model pc .
another thing you could try is setting your mem config in the bios to "by SPD"
otherwise try juggeling some of your pci/isa card's around (diff slot's) know that sounds funny but trust me it solves the prob sometimes it has to do with the irq assingment
Oh and btw SDK winXp doesn't have fdisk anymore :) now you have to fire up a recovery console and then type FIXMBR that will replace your MBR sometimes wise to run the FIXBOOT command too just to place a clean set of sys files

thanks everyone for your help. It actually turned out to be a mix between aol and my modem
i went threw and uninstalled aol7 and put on aol6 and connected and did everything i would do and the computer frose with 7 with version 6 and it didnt freeze. problem with that is that they said i can only have 2 more connects with 6 and then i have to have seven . i called aol and they gave me some bull that had nothn to do with anything and then they told me that they are going to ship a special aol7 disk for win xp pro but i dont believe that they have a special version of 7.
just when i thought it was just aol and decided to watch a movie and go to bed i was using mediaplayer to watch and watched 1hr and 30min of it with no freeze and then my phone rang and computer froze right away.
Just thought i would let everyone know
