Ok, for the record, the monitor will never ever be the problem unless all
the colors are green or something.

Also, with Win95, there aren't TSR's other than hardware drivers and the
Windows shell.

There's a few possibilities. First, you want to make sure you aren't
overclocking. If you don't know anything about it, it's probably best. You
might want to underclock it, or run the chip slower than it's supposed to be
able to. This is confusing stuff for most everybody, so check your mainboard
manual and set the CPU for 200 MHz instead of 233. (You can set it back if
it doesn't help).

You should have 32 or 64 megs of ram. anything else is uncivilized.

Other than that, it could be a memory problem.

Also, surf the web and make sure you have the newest hardware drivers
installed. Sometimes this helps.
