temp files is a good way although they may not be too many if you are not using the internet on that computer. if you know how to do it, you might defragment your hd, but don't ask me how you do that in win 3.1
And there also is the way of just running scandisk on a regular basis.
if you do these, your hd should be in top shape.

you can chek the dos temp files directory and assuming this is dos 6x to defrag to this at the c:\ promot type this c:\defrag
and hit enter it should run defrag

[win98]

also for sacndisk type at the c:\ promot
c:\scandisk note to run defrag and scandisk with their commands you do not need to type c:\ again

i used both those comands on my old 486 lots it is in the dum now it's power pack blew and short circiuted the whole pc

[win98]

also to save space use the drive space or double space command you have dos 5x-6.2x it is double space and 6.22 and up had drive space including win9x dos 6.21 was made when a company sued microsoft for using the name dobule space since their product was called that any way the commands are
also to find your dos version type ver
doublespace= c:\dblspace
drivespace=c:\drvspace

all very good tips win98.
Maybe you can help me with a problem. I have a P 75 PC,
DOS 6.22, and i can turn it on, start to play any game, but after a short time,
the system halts and it won't go any further. i can only reset the pc.
As you might imagine, such a problem makes a pc unuseable, so if
you know anything that might help, plz :help: me!

hmm think think think think you might need to re-format that pc i will think about it moe but at the moment that is the only solution i can think of
