OFF TOPIC

I have never had a catastrophic system failure on Win95 or Win3x. (knock on wood). My only theory is that I have turned off write-behind caching and leave it off, always.

I do not know enough anymore to hypothesize whether caching has anything to do with your problem. (Of course, if the Registry is being constantly updated in real-time and a lockup occurs?) However, every person I've suggested this to, even those with chronic system failures, have found it breaks the cycle of wipe and re-install.

FWIW
