Add more memory (RAM) to the system. Bring it up to 256 mb at least.

What CPU does it have?


PC #1) via c3 1.0 ghz; 512 ram;

PC #2) P4 2.4 ghz; 512 ram;

On both systems, Mplayer9 worked ok at first, but, then, started
giving me the bluescreen (persistenly) on windoes boot startup and
finally wouldn't get past that. I re-installed windows 98se on both
systems, but still got bluescreen - had to reformat the C drive on
both, and fell back to the standard mplayer 6.4 that comes with
windows 98se.

I need a "URL"-type video streamer that works on windows 98se - the
forums have plenty of other windows 98se users that fell prey to
mplayer 9's destruction - have you gotten mplayer 9 to work on 98se?
What is your secret?
