  OK, I accept they are *related* to TP. But as I - and many others - 
don't get them with W98SE, I would have thought it worth looking further 
rather than changing the OS. Otherwise you may go through all the hassle 
and find the same thing happening.

   I found in the past that crashes like this were related to quirky RAM 
or graphics drivers. For some reason, TP seems to be unforgiving with 
either.
