Since I installed a MSI K7T PRO board running Win98 OS1, it has so far never crashed.

Not since I installed W2K pro yesterday. Running full tilt encoding dvd's and serving some ppl on FTP. W2K rocks! after about 20 hours of divx encoding it still has 120MB of ram free, stupid win 98 would run out after about 6 hrs and crash on me.

256MB of ram

One of my CUSL2 systems just crashed 1hr into testing a cC0 stepping 700E at 1100MHz. I had to back it off to 1050. Hope it keeps going now. :)

I haven't really crashed yet the only time was when I got a Windows Illegal Operation stupid box thing that wouldn't go away. Gosh I hate that. At least it doesn't happen as much as it did on my old box.

Sunday night. I bought a new Quantum Fireball hard drive last friday, got it all setup with Windows 2000 and 98. Then on Sunday, complete failure, head crash. It last a whole two and half days. So, I brought it back to Fry's, got my money back, and went to another store and got an IBM 75GXP 30 gig.

Two hours ago, I stuck my WD 4GB drive into my new setup and it was detecting a bunch of new hardware. I didn't want it to so I just kept cancelling. All I needed to do was to format my new 75GXP 45GB and copy WinMe onto it. After about 3 reboots, it loaded up with invalid system disk :( Lost everything on my HD! About 3 months worth of notes/HW and a bunch of personal photos.

My Win2k is very stable. Once i boot the Win98SE, the explorer.exe crashes a few time/day (my win98se is just for gaming).

Man, i'm installing Win2k like right now! Well, after I get another stick of RAM first. 128 seems to be just barely comfortable from what most people say.
