Windows locks up at popup menu
Running Windows 98 on old Pentium II
Have offloaded general documentation and photos, etc to clear memory and machine is running like a top, now...EXCEPT... I can no longer access the Internet (I'm on my laptop now) and...(THE MAIN PROBLEM) I continue to lock up every time I must reply to a popup box requiring a click on OK or YES/NO response. Example: When changing display properties or if I receive a message that the document I want to print is out of the margins--do I want to continue, and any other request of this nature. The instant I must click on the YES, NO, or OK button my entire machine locks up and I must restart, causing me to lose the ability to make any change. I don't have this problem in SAFE mode, but many of the things I lock up on are not doable in SAFE mode. I have searched the Internet for my problem and can't find any information that I can tell applies to it. I'm a novice (more or less) and maybe I saw it but it was too technical for me to recognize. HELP, PLEASE |
