MIS
Have an older laptop with 98SE. Crashed a few days ago, and since either hangs during load or goes into safe mode (alternates between the two). Ran scandisk, ad-aware, spybot, RegClean, and virus program. All checks out OK. I have also cleaned out everything in my start-up using MSCONFIG, except systray. Booted up with bootlog and only obvious problems are all fonts with TTF extension failed with a failure code of 0016 (?), and the last five lines of the bootlog.txt are:
InitDone = Display Rsources
[000DC1CA] Starting Unknown (HTREE\RESERVED\0)
[000DC1CA] Started Unknown (HTREE\RESERVED\0)
[000DC1CD] Enumerating Unknown (HTREE\RESERVED\0)
[000DC1CE] Enumerated Unknown (HTREE\RESERVED\0)
These last 4 lines appear one more time in the body of the BOOTLOG.TXT close to the beginning of the file. What appears to be an address on the left is not the same however.
This may be more detail than is required, but I need to get this old machine back to working. I don't recall why it crashed. As I recall it was some sort of adware or virus scan that had completed before the lock-up. Or something like that
Some direction as to where to look next will be helpful. I'm going to continue to work on it however.
Thanx in advance
