Hi everyone! I have a strange problem.
I have a 98se 192mb ram, and about 450mhz cpu, (would that be a p3?)
So I posted here in the hardware section because I don't think it is Windows.
Basically the computer just freezes up. No warning, it just locks up like the cpu was taken out while it was running (yes, I have done that before). The only way to clear it is to do a hard boot. I thought at first it was over heating, but if I can instantly power off and on again with no problem, then I don't know what it is. I don't think it is Windows, because I have a relatively fresh installation. BUT the computer did NOT have this problem while I had UBUNTU installed. So it might be software related....
Any ideas?
Thanks,
