please help me ! - my computer crashes

greenspun.com : LUSENET : A One Forum : One Thread

Dear Experts, I have the following configuration: KOB KT133 FSX motherboard, a 1.2G AMD Athlon processor, 512MB RAM ( PCI133 ), nVidia TNT2 with 32MB. My problem is that everytime I try to install Win2k it crashes. Also this happens for Win98 and Linux. How it crashes ? I just can do anything with it: the mouse doesn't move anymore, the keyboard doesdn't respond.. and I have to push the reset button (CTRL+ALT+DEL doesn't work either) After I add the drivers that came with the motherboard, the system becomes a little more stable, but it still crashes. Another thing: after it crashes once, every attempt to reload the system fails and my only option is to wait about 1 hour, then it starts. Please, please, please, help me with this issue, because I don't know what's wrong. Thank you very much, Ionut
