Win98
AMD K6/2 350MHz

Just installed win98. Everything is working fine, except that the system keeps freezing. I've disabled power managment in the bios, but was hopeing someone had any more ideas.

thx,
lucas

Are you doing heavy graphics with other programs open? Do you have a lot of programs running in the background?

nope. fresh installation on a formated drive. removed almost everything from the startup, so there's only a couple things in the back ground. i've also noticed that when i'm loading programs, the system becomes chopy, and the cpu is max'd out
