I have a generic Win98se computer(relatively new) with a decent amount of applications on it. When I install MS Netmeeting either from a lgitec disk(version 2.1) or off Microsoft Website(version3.0) it installs fine. I can execute the program, get through the sound test and recording device test, then the very next window I click finish and it locks the computer up. It freezes in the exact same spot every time. It happens no matter what version or source of the program. I wonder if it might be a sound card issue. The sound card seems to work normally, but when we go on certain websites with sound the computer freezes. I updated the driver and it seemed ok for a day(as far as websites, not netmeeting), then probs. again. PLEASE HELP.

Thank You Guys

Only a stab in the dark but. Go to Microsoft and download the latest version of DirectX and check for other related updates.

Go into device manager and disable your sound card, reboot your computer, try re-installing netmeeting and see if it works, browse those same websites you were having problems with, if you have success you will have to re-install your sound card from scratch, first making sure it's firmly seated on the motherboard.
