My system was working great with Win98. But since I have installed Win200 pro, I've been having freeze problems.

Installation Problem: At the time of installation it froze during windows setup (when screen of mouse and keyboard drivers setup comes). I would always get stuck on that screen and that too, when the setup is almost complete (the blue line is at its end). It was frustrating, I could not get pass the driver setup screen. Then I kept playing with my mouse, moving the setup screen around. Since I had my mouse working, it completed the driver setup and went to next screen and my windows 200 pro installation was completed.

Now my Windows startup, but after few seconds my mouse, keyboard, evertything freezes. Sometime when I try to open any application after window startup, it freezes.

Strangely, I found that when I get connected on the internet , my computer does not freezes for a long time. During this time I can open and run other applications with no freeze up.

My system: AMD K^-III 450 MHZ, 256 MB Ram, Award Bios, Tyan 1598 motherboard, Monitor -> Sun Microstaion fixed frequency Monitor with Mirage illusionist graphics card 32 MB memory.

I have tried all the possibilities to fix. But my computer keeps freezing. Please help me with suggestions. Thank you.
