If I remember correctly, you had 64mb ram? I think adding some would probably be a good upgrade to your system. What brand machine and what model # are you running? What was the operating system (98?)?

What you described with screen freezing and locking up the computer is very similiar to problem that i have - with Netscape 4.7, which is my primary browser. I have 128 mg RAM on a P2 -266 with Roadrunner. I thought i had plenty of RAM, but could see that this isn't enuf, as i too spend plenty of time on line and have quotes, and other screens open. I have to ctr-alt-del to close netscape, sometimes have to reboot to get anything. the new puter should solve that. larry

Looks like bosquedog hit the nail on the head..#reply-16736590

While lack of ram could be a problem, system resource errors are really not related. Here's a couple of articles that might help you get a better handle on your resource problem.

Here's several links from PMS Witch concerning resources. Do a search (edit/find from the upper toolbar in IE) for "resource" #reply-15936011
