No more 100s of E-mails from me to you and you to me Thanks again!
No problem. Glad to hear your gf4mx problem got fixed... And as for your new question : weird, you're SURE the original works on the bad pc too ? And they both use w98 ? I know of a very limited number of cracks that work on w95/w98/me and not on xp/2000 and vice versa, but that cannot be the problem here. Maybe you could try making an image with CloneCD and mount it with Daemon Tools. If that crashes too, the cracks are not the problem. Oh, and make sure your memory is working perfectly (with memtest86 like I told you). If you're not afraid of building pc's, maybe you could switch cases (and power supplies) and see if the problem goes with the power supply. Other than that, I'm fresh out of ideas. My last two ideas are good candidates for mysterious crashes, like the ones you have.
