How much memory do you?  Win2K is a memory hog.  I had this problem on a
Win2K
machine with 128 MB RAM.  It turns out Win2K was the culprit, after boosting

the memory to 512 MB RAM with 200 MB Pagefile, it started sorta behaving...
Have you applied Service Pack 1?  It fixes some of the serious memory
problems on Win2K.
