crashing kernel32.dll on older computer

hello, i have been testing my jogl game on a pretty old PC. it runs on Win98 and has an ATI Rage IIC. drivers are up to date.

about when the jogl-init function is called the game crashes in kernel32.dll, so i cant really debug the code. i am not sure if this problem is even jogl-related.

does anyone know where i should start looking for the problem? thanks!

Did you get an hs_err log file out of the java process? Can you post the contents?

Frankly this OS and hardware are completely obsolete. Your best bet would be to junk the PC and get a new one.
