I have a family member that is using windows me. The computer seems to hang up using any program including the internet and microsoft games included with the program.
When the computer is first booted up it goes straight to suspend or it appears to be suspend anyway you can't get the computer to boot up. You actually have to power off and then power on usually 5 to 7 times to get the computer to boot up.
I think that maybe the harddrive is going bad but I am not sure any help would be appreciated I don't usually work with windows me so I don't know the peculiarities of it. Thanks for the help.

well,you have multi options
1:- re-install wi me
2:-this seems to be a hardware conflict,so when you get in,try to disable your hardware (sound card,vga(agp),modem) one by one,and every time reboot,and see what is causing the problem,then install it manually,and change the IRQ number for it,so it wont conflict
