Freezes are Bazaar

I just formatted my girlfriend's HDD and installed Win98SE in place of WinME and have been experiencing freezes shortly after startup mostly, but other times as well. Here is what she has:

Asus CUSL2
256MB Crucial RAM
800MHz Pentium III
32MB All-In-Wonder Radeon
IBM HDD 36Gig
3Com 3c905ctxm
Pioneer 16x DVD-ROM
Sound Blaster Live! MP3+
Microsoft Intellimouse Optical

What Gives? Anybody have a clue?

1 GHz Tbird on A7V, 128MB PC133 RAM, Samsung 19" 900IFT, Radeon 64MB DDR VIVO, SB Live! MP3+, 42.9GB IBM HDD, Plexwriter 8/4/32, 3C905CTXM nic, Intellimouse Explorer

Was it doing the same thing in Win Me?

Sounds like a memory issue to me..If ya have some spare RAM laying around swap it out and see if the fixes it.

"Freezes are Bazaar" yes, they are, I always see them when I go to Macy*s. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed. Seriously, though, the word you're looking for is "bizarre"
