Forgive me--Win98 Problem
This is a discussion about Forgive me--Win98 Problem in the Windows Software category; I know, I know. . . . INFERNO2000? YOU ASKING ABOUT WIN98? Shaddup. If I install it, I get a 1 GB HDD for free. It's for my parents' computer, I installed Win98SE on their P1 100 (48MB RAM). . . and after it resets the second time(when it's getting ready to go into the OS itself), it says Windows File Protection Error.
I know, I know....INFERNO2000? YOU ASKING ABOUT WIN98?
Shaddup.

It's for my parents' computer, I installed Win98SE on their P1 100 (48MB RAM)...and after it resets the second time(when it's getting ready to go into the OS itself), it says Windows File Protection Error.
I've installed that OS hundreds of times on several computers...but this is the first time it's EVER done this to me...
Any ideas?

Throw it out the window !!
OK, check the compatibility of your hardware with 98SE I had a problem sometime ago with an Abit Motherboard and a Live! sound card, the default Live driver where just crashing PC at startup... still a win98 mystery to me.
not the only one I guess..

OP
the problem with this was those defunct bastards at Packard Bell. The motherboard doesn't allow the upgrade to Win98.
Oh well.
I still got the hdd
