I thought that perhaps if you had some memory that had a bad bloc, maybe
it would learn about it, and not use that bit, or something like that. A
bit like scandisk marking bad sectors.

The freezing problem I have been posting about for a while now, seems to
have gone away on it's own (touch wood... lots of it!), so I thought
maybe Windoze had 'learnt' what was causing the problem and was avoiding
it.
