Did the qwik restore for 98 windows start to boot almost to the finish, then what, damn blue screen of death,

So it tells me I have a protection error,

also when booting, dos says D:\file not found.

Even tried it 4 times, cmfao. so I tried Xp to startup, some strange error.

Lost, I even fdisked 3 times, dunno.

compaq presrio 5710 with a k6 i thing not sure.

Don't know for sure.

Those "restore" disks just plain suck.

I've got a Presario 7470.

I borrowed a full version of Win98SE from a friend, fdisk'd and did a clean install. No problems since.(3 years ago)

Yea, XP may be to much for your processor and/or memory.
