I have a problem on my system that started a couple weeks
ago. I am running windows 98 on a 550 MHZ Hp with 312 RAM
and 10 GB HD.

What happens is that every now and then when I try to type
in a word to search, highlighting a saved line in a form
to delete, fill out a form or a web address, I get
the "illegal Operation" popup box and I am booted offline.
Sometimes the scree will go black or I get the blue screen
that tells me to hit ctrl alt del.

Anyone have any solutions?
