well dun try using win98 2 reinstall 95.......... no way thats gonna work......... LoL

newayz.......... wot i found out with 98: installing every 2 months is a must 2 keep the blue screen of death at bay............ windows has so many errors, that its inevitable that ull have 2 reinstall every 1ce in a while......


but bout that error........ have u tried running scandisk??? maybe its a hardware problem thats causin config.sys 2 work impropperly........

boot with start disk, type c: cd windows then scanreg/fix windows should then restore a good registry if you got 1 :D or try taking out hard drive and sticking it in another pc as a slave and do dskchk or scandisk on drive or very least get any files off it that are important and then stick it back in original pc and re install windows.......xp would be the prefered......but if you like blue screens then put 98 or 95 on....or for even more unreliablity stick on windows ME :D lol :D
