Looks like your 16MB going bad. See if you can get another 32 to put in it.

They removed the 16 MB & instauled a 32 MB .It only had 1 slot for memory board .It is showing that 7 MB of new 32 MB board is working . Is that possible ?

Sorry read post wrong Sound like the memory slot is going bad. That's a pretty old system you got there and you are probably going to have more problem than that. Save up or better yet have mom and dad get you one for Christmas or "B" Day or just because.
