Whilst not usually required since Win 9x systems can handle up to 2GB of
RAM I'm pleased to read that Jerry's suggestion of setting
MaxPhysPage=40000 has helped solve your problem. Incidentally this has
the same effect as your removing the two small 128MB memory sticks.

Actually there is no documented instance of anyone using Windows 9x
successfully with more than 1.5 gb of RAM installed.

Use of the MaxPhysPage parameter is getting more common these days as
more people are configuring systems with huge amounts of RAM to
multi-boot Windows XP and Windows 98SE/Me.
