Yes, W98 is crap. No real need to discuss that.
As for some sort of event overload, I doubt it. The system has plenty
of power power and memory for the tasks at hand.
The system running as a server is a recent HP Pavillion. 800 Mhz and
256 Mb. The system is running VNC and one, or perhaps 2 other
applications, has one disk, one Ethernet and one IBM network adapter.
256 color and SVGA screen mode mean the video card is not working at
more than 5% capacity.
Sitting and watching the usage meter, it hardly ever gets to 10%.
Something strange is crashing the system; hard to tell what.
