Win98 just came out with a new OLE fix this week. I am sure that could have been a part of the buggy system I had.

System is NOW 95% stable. Remember the computer from hell for the past 2 months...

Traced problem to these 3 culprits:

Thrustmaster F16 FLCS Joystick (connects to keyboard)
STB Video drivers
HotDog ver 5.0

Possibly:
Windows OLE problem could have compounded the situation, (But the new fix released this week may help)

FIX:
Disconnect the joystick from keyboard - use joystick port only.
Updated the video drivers , new ones were just released a few weeks ago.
Uninstall Hotdog (allot of people complaining about cut & paste problems with Hotdog & Windows)
Install Win98 OLE update released this week.

Thanks for everyone's help!!!
