Motherboard: MSI MS-6309 v2.x
CPU: Pentium III 800MHZ
Video Card: Nvidia Geforce 2 Mx400 (Driver version 81.98)
RAM: 512 MB
OS: Windows 98 SE
System Updates: I ran the 2007 and 2008 Autopatch Scripts.
CPU temps (according to mbprobe): 86f (30c)
Hard drive: CF card
The problem: After booting up, my windows 98 installation will freeze at random points. Sometimes it will freeze right when I get to the login menu. Sometimes it will freeze when I open a menu. Sometimes it will freeze when trying to load a website on retrozilla. Sometimes the system will stay frozen. Othertimes the screen will temporarily go black, come back and be unfrozen. On less common occasions the screen will stay black, and my monitor starts blinking it's power light.
I would suspect the videocard, however, when the computer is in safe mode, I leave it idle for a while and nothing happens. What could be causing this?
