I don't know a lot about computers but I do know that I have  a problem.  
I recently bought a 486 pc system from a dealer that assembles the units in the
shop so I got a pretty good deal.  The problem is that after about 5-10 minutes
after booting up the whole thing freezes up.  It won't accept any keyboard
commands and if a program is running it stops.  This seems to happen for all
types of software so that is probably not the problem.  

	I do have a warantee ( even if I can't spell it ), but I don't have the
time to bring it down and it will probably take a week to fix anyway.  

	Does any one have any suggestions as to what it might be?  Any help is
appreciated.

thanks 
Ryan
