Ok, I recently built this PC myself, and i thought it was working perfectly, until a prgm crashed in the usual win98 fashion.
So I use ctrl alt delete and closed it, and it sed this prgm is not responding, ok so far, but when you select "end task" in the second pop up, my computer just hangs/freezes/breaks/shuts-off/unresponsive/etc. So I need to reboot the sucker.
Also with games like DF2 I cant exit the windowed view through the game, cos it just freezes up my system.

Sys Spec:
AMD ATHLON 2000+
Latest gigabyte motherboard (one without ultra on it)
512mb DDR PC 2100
20 gig HDD 5400rpm
128mb Pinnacle Geforce 4 8X AGP graphics Ti4200 (-Beasty for 120 quid!)
48*12*48 CDRW

Hope someone can help!

Im afraid i agree, get windows xp it's the best and most stable operating system out from microsft at the moment (until microsoft longhorn), Windows 98 was always prone to crashes this is why people preferred to use things like windows 2000.

I got exactly the same problem!

Haven't got a clue how to fix it though!

I can't delete all the autocomplete stuff from IE, whenever I try it, IE freezes and CTRL ALT DEL just stalls the PC altogether when I close it down...

I'm stuffed as to what I can do...
