Hello

My computer starts to slow down after 2 hours or less. Then its impossible to click or close anything. I do that Ctrl + Alt + Delete, but some blue srceen comes up and says windows is unstable and some other stuff like that, but the close program window comes up about 2 minutes later after the blue screen, then the close program windows shows that everything is not responding. then from there everything just quits. I am running windows 98.

You can try some of these tips (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/win98/maintain/first.asp?frame=true), but I suspect you might have some registry issues as well. You might want to search google for registry cleaners (regclean, regcleaner, jv16).

GO to start / run/
Type in MSCONFIG and go to startup tab, and uncheck programs that you dont use, this might free some memory up.
If you dont know what it is dont uncheck it. Also do you have a virus program. And is it updated, check for viruses, there spreading like wilddfires. See ya

Could be a memory leak as well...seen this before with video drivers and many programs...try to see if there is a pattern to when it does it...amd update your drivers...

When all else fails, read the instructions.
