I'm running a PIII 1.0ghz on asus mobo, 20gb hd, 396mb ram, geforce 2 TI 64mb agp card, soundblaster 512pci sound card. All of a sudden Thursday afternoon my computer starts locking up. It has been happening in apps, and while idle at the desktop. It starts out freezing after about 1 hour, then on restarting it, it freezes at 30 minutes, then 15 minutes then locks on restart. I have reformatted my hard drive, installed win98se, have all the newest drivers for cards, removed memory chips and replaced them. Checked all cards for proper placement, have nothing but explorer and systray in background and asus pcprobe shows cpu heat as normal and all fans are working. Also when it freezes the monitor also makes a steady beep tone. When restarting I have to hard boot it, cause the reset and power buttons arent functioning. I have been told the problem maybe in the mobo or in the video card. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas about this ??? Thanks in advance!
