When I tried to log in - put in my password - my computer freezes up - then
I restart the computer and it lets me log in just fine. The computer runs
fine for the most part but now and then still locks up. Especially when
idle. I changed the ram chip and it is much better but still freezes up at
Log On. Do I need to repair my profile. Seems much better since I changed
out the ram chip - I am using Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3

No, although it would be better if the old one isn't bad. Put it in and
see. You might want to put the RAM sticks in and then pull them out and
in a bit to get rid of any corrosion.
