Computer freezing alot

Posted by: compguy83

I'm really not sure what category this question goes in but I think I might know whats causing the problem but need someone elses opinion.
I bought a new video card about two months ago and then a month later also got dsl. My dad has the real dsl I have wireless upstairs and I think ever since I got the wireless that runs from a usb port my computer freezes like almost constantly I can just be letting it download something and within two minutes most of the time the computer freezes or I can be playing a game online and all of the sudden freezes. The new video card I purchased two months ago was a geforce fx 5200 my question is can the video card be causing problems with my wireless dsl or is it just the dsl itself? I need HELP!
I have a pentium 3 computer 733mhz windows 98 se and 192mb of ram let me know if you need any other specs thanks in advance

could be either or both. could also be entirely unrelated to either. if you are not online, does it freeze?

Yeah it also freezes when I'm not online that's where I'm confused

ok, unplug the wireless from your comp, and determine if it continues to freeze.
