Sb: #3D studio locks up

I am running the educational (hardware locked) version of 3D studio V.4, recently upgraded from V. 3. Hardware: Comtrade Pentium 90, 32MB ram, Diamond Stealth video card, Summagraphics 12×12 "FX" tablet, DPS PAR board & TBC IV video capture board. Problem: In 3D studio, at irregular intervals and for no apparent reason, the system suddenly hangs up, and will not accept any input – forcing me to reboot and lose any work that was not saved. This does not seem to have anything to do with what I am doing in 3D Studio – if I simply go into the program and let it sit for a few minutes, it will almost invariably hang. This also was a problem with version 3, although it only affected input from the digitizer, whereas now it affects the keyboard as well. It does not occur in any other software – including a locked version of Autocad 13 (running in Windows). I would appreciate any suggestions as to how to correct this problem. thanks
