ok.....I just spent 7HRS installing Windows ME on a new system

here are the speces
AMD T-bird 1.1GHZ
Abit KT7A -Raid
ATI all in wonder 128
Diamond MX-300
128MB PC-133 RAM
Pioneer DVD 10X/slot
HP 9310 CDRW
3Com SOHO NIC 10/100
Quantum 30GB HD ata/100

after finally getting ME installed and updated I'm experiancing intermittent lock ups, for example it froze when the install for Half Life was starting and woudl get really slow and choppy when copying files.

anyone have any idea's about this? any tweake/updates they you guys had to perform to make your system run smooth?
