Found what was locking up my computer

[Marvin Callahan]

It seems...and the Lord had to help me find the problem, but my computer would hang up when I started to burn a CDG. It turned out after trying everything I knew that I found the Direct Memory Access was what was locking up my computer. When I clicked off DMA in CD Rom setup in Control Panel's System's Setting for my Plextor CD Rom that the problem went away. I have Windows 98SE. This may help someone... reinstalling good ASPI drivers is a help too... Thanks

Marvin,
The Plextor supposidly needs this to be turned on, as stated in Plextor's manuals. I think what you might want to try to do is find out if you can get the latest updated drivers for your Motherboards chipset, this should fix this issue.

Sir, you said I should get updated drivers for my motherboards chipset... the processor is in the AMD K5 family 1999... I have already updated the Bios for this machine... could I do more... if so ... How ?
