Lenray, Let me say right off the bat that I don't wanna ruffle any feathers; that's the very last thing I want to do. I'm just trying to help and am trying to be "right in your face, honest with you". However, contrary to what anyone tells you, that BSOD or "Blue Screen Of Death" is 'always' caused by a bad memory module, a bad buss connection or a defective motherboard. Since all Win 9x and Win ME are memory driven operating systems as opposed to the application driven NT systems (Win NT, Win 2K, Win XP, etc.), it (the "crash") will show up in these systems first. For years, people have been wrongly accusing the 9x OS's for this problem, when in fact, the real reason lies in the cheaper hardware living inside their machine. You have three choices: You can live with it. You can change to a NT based operating system, which will "mask" the problem somewhat but will still occasionally show up as a "lock". Or, you can go out and buy a better computer. I've never understood the mindset of folks when shopping for a new computer. They always shop around and try to buy the cheapest they can find. This is like saying, "Give me the worst and most troublesome system you've got". Sorry, but this is just a hard cold fact of this computer world we now live in. :>( Allan
