hi,

i want to repair windows 98 se.

so i have a question:

i have windows 98 se cd with me.I am planning re-install the windows 98 se using my windows 98 se cd.

by doing that ...all the softwares and my documents files wont be lost?

i just want my files and other softwares to stay there...

whether this method will work out....?

thank you...

 
It is called an overlay install. Somewhere in excess of 90% in fixing problems, but occasionally you must do it multiple times to resolve issues.
If you get the option for location, install it to the same place.
You might also put the install stuff on your hard drive. Saves install time and saves looking for the CD when you need a driver.
