Hi All Recently had a problem with 98se freezing on me. No new hardware or software has been installed. If the pc is left inactive for a few mins it will almost certainly freeze, and sometimes it does so whilst booting up. Ctrl, alt del doesn't work when it freezes. Don't know if it is the same problem, but scan disk and defrag no longer work. Get a message along the lines of 'scandisk has restarted 10 times...' I am only using this system in the house to surf the web and don't really want to buy a new pc for a while yet. Any ideas would be very welcome. Thanx
