I have a client with a computer that is Intel Pentium II/400 Mhz, 128 MB RAM, Windows 98SE, Internet Explorer 6.0, all drivers and updates. Computer has an EPOX EP-6VBA motherboard, 20 MB Western Digital HDD. Problem - when on the internet and surfing(via cable connection), computer will quit responding. It takes a hard reboot to get system working again. I have ruled out heat problems, have installed new CPU and case fan. Replaced RAM, motherboard is rather new, and HDD is new. Anyone with any ideas....HELP....pulling my hair out!(and I do not have that much!)

Hi,

If it really ONLY happens during surfing and not at any other time, then I would be suspecting a hardware problem with the nic.

Preferably try a new one. Also you could try downloading SiSoft's Sandra which has the ability to stress the card and maybe flush out any problems it may have.

Cheers,
Tim.
