I have a friend with a Gateway 386/33DX system that is about 2 years old.
Recently, he upgraded the memory from 4 MB to 16MB.  Now, Windows locks up the
machine every time he clicks "OK" on the Exit Windows dialog box.  Is this
likely to be a driver conflict (mouse is on COM1, modem on COM2)?  Any ideas
on where to look?  [The BIOS reports that it sees all 16MB on bootup.]

Thanks.
