I have 950 AMD Duron CPU, 20GB HDD and 256MB RAM installed on a pretty new PC , with Win 98 OS. I can not use ScanDisk and DiskDefragmenter System Tools because each time I start one of them , a eror message describing memory deficiency appears.At the same time I see there are over 100 MB free RAM !
Can somebody help me ?

Temp files have mystical properties that only practicioners of an ancient religion based in the northwest corner of the united states understand. Get your self a bag of chicken bones (the ones from a big plate of Hooters Hot wings work well). Dim the lights and shake the bag of chicken bones over the computer while mumbling obscure techno bable in the most mysteriuos voice you can muster (very important!). Only after having done this, have windows search for *.tmp and delete them all. I have repaired MANY flaky pc's using this ancient ritual and it rarly fails to have medicinal value.

Use ctrl, alt, delete to see what's running in the background, turn off all that is not necessary, then run scan and defrag, or defrag will restart about four hudred times. Do these things after you mutter "momona na cheche na" with the bones.
