We have an NEC Powermate 600 PIII with windows 98 upgraded to Windows ME - 128mb ram and 4mb shared video. We are trying to run educational games for the kids like Eureka 3D Reading program which states on the box that it's for Windows ME - have also tried a lego game. They both freeze up and the only way to get out is to turn of machine at the power. Is it our video card - 4mb shared or is it Windows ME, causing the drama? Please help.
