Give this a try:

Click Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Information. Right
Click System Information and put a shortcut to it on your desktop. There
are several utilities in it that are useful.

Click the System Information shortcut, Click Tools, then Click Internet
Explorer Repair Tool.

Choose Repair Internet Explorer and follow the on-screen instructions. If
the Repair feature does not work, try the Restore to the Previous
Configuration.

My IE browser keeps locking up and then restarts my
computer. This only happens when i use my browser on-line.
I can use everything else including my chat services but
when I use IE it is locking up or freezing my computer and
sometimes restarts my computer. It does this when one of
few things happen, Either I type in an address and click
go or a come across a BIG picture on any web site or I go
to an web page with a Java (I think) script or it is a
huge page to load. IE, this happens almost every time I go
to microsofts web site to look in here. Just for
reference, it took me 4 trys to get to here and type this
message.

Do I have an graphics problem? My drivers are all loaded
correctly and there are no conflicts listed. My system is
Win98 2nd ED, 1150 MHZ AMD processor, Nivadia Ti4200 video
card, 512 MBs MEM, a DELL 21" Triniton monitor and 80 gigs
of HD space.
