Hal,
I have run WL with Win98 on a P-60 without problems. First, how 
much RAM do you have? I would suggest 64 MB minimum.
Second, make sure all non-essential programs are closed (virus 
checkers, screen blankers, etc.) Right after booting the computer, 
do a CTL-ALT-DEL (one time!) This will bring up a list of what is 
running in the background. Systray and Explorer are essential 
parts of Win98 (I don't know abt Win95). Everything else should be 
deleted one by one. Then, run WL and see if that solves the 
problem.
73,
