I've recently upgraded my computer. I had a DFI mb that was supposed to be able to handle a 133 fsb so I went out and bought a new PIII 866 and a 128 dimm of pc133. Brought it home put it in and got nothing but system registry errors. So I took the memory back and got a new one. Same thing. So I took the memory back again and had them run it in one of their machines, ran like a champ. So great, new motherboard. New boards bios is only 4 months old so everything should be up to date. hmmm. Now on a repartitioned, reformatted hard drive, with a clean install of Win 98. After I install a driver the computer reboots and gets to the point where the icons should be popping up on the screen and hangs. No particular driver in any particular order causes this. Once I had all my drivers installed/rebooted, and went to install Office 2000 and it hung on the reboot. I've had it to the point where I just installed my modem driver which does not require a reboot and I went to the Microsoft site and downloaded Win 98 service pack and installed. Guess what,,hung on reboot.
A ctl-alt-delete tells me the system is busy or unstable,,no duh. I've been fighting this thing for a week now and would love any help. Thanks in advance.
