Strange because it suppose be Win98... :-)))
Linux pushes the hardware a lot harder than Win98. I expect if you put Windows NT/2000/XP on it you'd experience similar problems. A long time ago I had motherboards that worked fine with DOS but kernel panicked with SCO Unix installed; a replacement motherboard from the same manufacturer worked fine. Many hardware components are marginal and will fail when pushed to their limits. This is common in cheap PCs and cheap components. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. Sometimes they work sometimes ;) -- Cliff Wells, Software Engineer Logiplex Corporation (www.logiplex.net) (503) 978-6726 x308 (800) 735-0555 x308
