Check whether your FF and Chrome is final or beta version.If beta,remove it and install above mentioned final current version.I recommend you to never use beta version or RC's.

Cheers,

Actually, what happens is that the latest versions, all consume, truck loads of memory space, all alike.

As such, I'm using the latest versions of Chrome, FF & IE but IE8 is the slowest browser, i've seen. Opening more than 2-3 tabs at a time, make it almost dead. Chrome, FF & K-Meleon are slightly better.

Yet it does happen that whenever I open a no. of tabs the system starts consuming a lot of virtual memory. I have only 256 MB of physical RAM installed. Moreover, after re-starting the system from hibernation, the system takes a lot of time to become normal & till such time, the browser is very sluggish

Chrome is the best if its only 256 MB RAM.. I suggest u use more of that.. Otherwise FF.. IE is the worst browser possible (except IE 6)..

If you bargain, you'll get the Dell Inspiron lappy+bag for 37-38K. Try talking to the Dell guy.

i suppose hard disk might suffer the most- the head might crash etc..
but considering that there might be a lot of spikes which the UPS usually filters out, every component connected to the SMPS might suffer- I had one desktop wid fried motherboard and RAM
