My older, secondary computer (pentium 120) is running windows 95. Well, at
least it used to. It worked fine, then it regularly started freezing up
randomly. I could always restart it and it would be fine for awhile. Now, I
can't even get it to load windows. It always freezes up at different points
during the loading process. Sometimes it would load to the windows 95
loading screen, but never gets past that point anymore. I have run scandisk
and performed a surface scan. It indicates no bad sectors. I formatted the
hard drive (high level), and installed windows 95 again. The installation
went fine, copied the files over, then restarted. The "Windows 95 starting
for the first time" screen came on. Then it froze again. Several restarts
and a scandisk later, I realized the problem was not resolved. I don't know
what the problem could be. Any ideas? Perhaps something in the BIOS or
setup could be the problem? By the way, it's Windows 95 version 4.0.
