Event ID 45 - after uninstalling IE7 beta 1
LOL, this is by far the best Event ID I've ever run across:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: Application Popup
Event Category: None
Event ID: 45
Date: 4/4/2006
Time: 3:21:47 PM
User: N/A
Computer: EID6246
Description:
A device driver is leaking locked I/O pages causing system degradation. The system has automatically enabled tracking code in order to try and catch the culprit.
It's MS COPS!
Anyway, anybody have any ideas as to why my computer, internet browsing, outlook, etc. is running like crap now that I've uninstalled the IE7 beta? Don't need a lecture on betas, but I would like to figure out how to get back to stable. I've reinstalled XP SP2, and that's about it at this point.

Uninstall IE7. I had two colleagues use IE7 beta as well. It prevented them from using outlook after a few days, and they uninstalled IE7 (which auto rolled back to IE6 and resolved the problem) Eventually afer a month my computer suffered performance problems (I was not able to surf the internet with IE7 but was OK with firefox) ... once again uninstalling IE7 fixed the problem

Well, I started with Antunb's reply, and the sfc /scannow so far has me back in business, after another sp2 reinstall following that.
Very strange, even Firefox and Avant browser would lock up, along with Outlook.
I'll watch it for the rest of the day, and if everything continues to work, I'll close this question...if not, then I'll work through the other suggestions.
Thanks all.

Well, it's still being a pain in the butt, even after the suggestions.
At this point, I'm either looking at living with rebooting a few times a day for awhile until I can migrate to a new machine, or I may try installing Beta 2 of IE7 just to see if it stabilizes again.

that's how some software goes... never expect perfect behaviour from BETA software!
