When trying to logout of Mandrake 7.2 I hear the little logout sound and then the OS doesn't logout. From there I am forced to shut down the computer. I also have a problem with some of the programs not wanting to close so that I have to manually kill them with the skull and cross bones. Might this indicate a problem with my memory chip being bad? I'm also having windows 98SE freezes on the same machine.

Some programs are not supposed to be shut down with the x like the dialup connection you have to disconnect first befour you can kill it with an x There are others that way cant think of now.
