Help! please!

Recommended Posts

OK here is the situation. I just got a TYAN Tiger 100. I put my 2 PIII 450's in it. Installed 98 and 2000 2 times. Each time 2000 kept rebooting, and giving me errors. I then formatted, installed 2000 only and I still have problems. It will spontaneosly decide to re-boot. I was playing counterstrike and all of a sudden BAM! re-boot. I will be using internet explorer, and it will give me a error likeL: "IEXPLORE.EXE has generated errors and will be closed by windows. This program will need to be restarted" That is not exact but its something like that. I have no idea why it is doing this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think I'm quite safe in saying that 90% of Windows 2000 errors are due to hardware issues.

What I would be tempted to do first with your system is remove one of the memory modules.

See if the problem still occurs.

If it does, swap the removed module for the one you left installed and again see if the error still happens.

Memory is where I always look first when I hit these kind of issues.

Thank you so much. I replaced my ram with my roomates 256 MB Micron and it hasn't given me any trouble yet(only been one hour) I hope this fixes my trouble. Looks like i'll be ordering some ram soon
