Turn off the cartoon look, get ALL the updates as appartently they're not in a service pack until the legal stuff is sorted and all the latest drivers. Drivers are the worst offenders. You should then find it very stable.

1ghz P4 dont exist...
128meg is not enough for XP you probably bought one of the "sucker" P4. Low Mhz, low Ram, and SDRAM to boot... that sucks ass.... sorry... p.s. also, you cant upgrade... sucks eh?

I am running 256 with an Athlon 650 ... and it runs pretty sweet ... unless I am downloading movies ... I have to constantly reclaim my RAM then ...
I am starting a BIG RED H server ... so I will be putting another 256 MBs in ... as well as a couple 100 GB hard drives on top of the 40 I already have ... I think I might go USB external drives  anybody have any good or bad stories about external high capacity USB drives ??
