I have 98 mb on that box.

I may do that if I can find a cheap CDR drive
somewhere.  My current one does not read very reliably
so I took it out.

The machine used to run Windows 95 without difficulty.
 Recently, it runs FreeDOS and MenuetOS, both of which
can access all the memory (according to the OS).  But
attempting to load any Linux based OS always ends up
with an unrecoverable kernel crash.

Thanks for the assistance.  If worse comes to worse, I
may just scrap my WinMe box.  That OS is beginning to
annoy me.
