If you will tick the **preserve my spacing** box
and throw in a carriage return now and then, your posts
http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/win98/1171563261
will be less difficult to read.

(Though there are some dim bulbs who do A LOT worse than you):

If, before posting again,
you made sure the **No preview** box near the bottom of this page
http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/win98/config
is NOT ticked, *you* could see what your posts look like
BEFORE submitting them.

(All of this is due to a moronic choice of defaults on the part of the Webmaster.)

I'd also check my RAM.

of http://www.memtest86.com/
+build.a.bootable.floppy

I note that you didn't specify how much RAM you have in this box.
