Computer: HP xl848 (from Sam's Club)

Lots of freeze ups and Blue Screens; (OE messages).  I've added memory (another 128) 
ran diagnositics and still have the same problems.

Mostly occurs when retrieving emails.  Beside cleaning the system and installing 
Windows 98, any suggestions or sites that may help my problem ?

Thanks.

If below 80% run msconfig, goto startup tab and remove unecessary programs. HP support can advise on which ones are truely necessary On Friday, August 17, 2001 at 11:01 am, Fred wrote: >Can not help, but same thing happens with my system running ME and Eudora 5.1, I >have 512mb of memory still does not help.

Norton (as well as Windows) has known issues dealing with more than 256meg RAM. Also I've heard that there might be a memory leak with Outlook Express 5 if you are using it. ( I don't use it.) Check with the Microsoft Knowledge base to see if there is an update. If none of the above applies to you, then I'm out of ideas. Sorry.
