I know this seems silly, but I keep losing my wallpaper (as selected using the display utility in the Control Panel). It stays around for a few hours or a day and it disappears. it does not come back when the system is rebooted. I have to go back into the CP, unselect my chosen wallpaper...

Thanks again... BTW, my BIOS tells me when someone is asking to write to the bootsector, not afterward....based on the msg and I have to say OK write, or deny that write. At least that is how it seems to work to me. Jerry

Thanks for clarifying...I will give it a try.

Are you saying that I should disable the Bios Anti-Virus function? Is Win98 really trying to write to my boot sector and I should allow it? Thanks for taking the time to help.... Jerry

Thanks for the advice, now an update. The error is a fatal exception at 0028:000000009 (I think that is the right number of zeros) and it stops everything forcing a reboot. I decided to reinstall W98SE over itself and a strange thing happened. Just after Win create the start file and moves on...

The good news just keeps comin'... My computer, running W98SE has developed what seems to be a corrupt exporer... I can get the machine to boot to the desktop and access to the HD's seems normal....BUT wheneve I try to use Explorer, write/read to a HD or to one of my 2 CDROM the blue screen of...

I recently installed a new Jetway 720bf AT MB into my computer. It uses an SiS 620 chipset. Using the installation CDROM it installed SiS harddrive controller and drivers. For whatever reason, it recommends that these drivers be replaced by the OS (using Win 98SE) drivers to gain added...

Jim, you were spot on. After eading some other threads it seemed that this was related to the USB drivers. I went back into the control panel and deleted the USB drivers and then rebooted the system...WOW it wanted to reinstall everything and just about did and now it boots quicker than it did...

I recently had to replace the MB in my AT system (Celeron 300A, 98mg ram, 16g HD). Being hard to find, I had to take what the local dealer had, a Jetway 720bf. After installation and a bit 'o tweekin it was working OK but I was having trouble getting it to recognize my ADS USB card andit did...
