is there any conflicts in Device manager? or have you overclocked your Processor? Is there sufficient heat in the case? Is your CPU overheating?

I would go for the latest operating system if you can afford it. I mean 98, that's four years ago; I near microsoft is the work of the devil and all but windows does get better and better (though cunningly slowly) with fewer problems with installation and running. A warning though, DONT USE WINDOWS ME! go straight for XP, it looks wierd at first but I've had no problems with it and it setup my network without me having to do anything which was nice.
