Recovering a Dell Inspiron 8000 (Pentioum 3, 512 MB RAM). It is using the XP
drivers, not the Dell drivers. Device manager shows no problems. Win XP
installs ok, accepts updates.  Then will freeze at the Windows splash
screen  about half the time. I have swapped RAM, tried a second HDD, removed
the battery. Also freezes in Safe mode. What's the likely problem?
