    No offence

    I would first be sure that all appropriate OS files are updated.

    However

    I also would not throw out the possibility that between your OS and IE you are just asking to much of your system. This of course only applies to standard installation and there maybe a certain install recipe that will alow it to work for you. But from a personal prespective (have used IE 3,4 then 6 then 5.x), I can say that if your setup worked with 5.x then I would stay with that as 6 appears to have minimal advantages.

    I agree. That computer seems fit to run 95 or less. I say think about upgrading to a new computer soon.

    There is one more thing u can tryout, undo your o'clocking and resume your normal/original MHz as I do noticed from your sig u hav your system o'clocked, and that could be your culprit of so much BSODs.....it's no harm to tryout my suggestion, right ?
