    Crashed Windows 98 se

    My system crashed. I tried to reload but had a power shortage. So now I get to the opening windows at boot but just stays there. I can't get my 98 disk to setup. What can I do to reinstall windows? THANKS

    Windows 98SE crashes so much because it is a poorly written Operating System.

    Its that simple.

    ME sucks. 2000 rocks. Never tried XP. I run 98se but on my other comp I run 2000. 2k's fast, but doesn't run some games (NT based) and 98 is more compatable. 2k's got better performance and has some nicer features.
    cabbage!

    win98se

    on my secondary (asus p5a-b w/k6-2 550) win 98se crashes a lot. did i mention it crashes a lot? i've probably had to reformat my 30gb 7200rpm maxtor 4 or 5 times in the past 6 months. of course i overclocked it. me is also not very stable. when i run unix (yes i got a copy of unix) or linux it is ok. xp not yet tested. on my other machines ( 800 athlon and 1.2 athlon) it is fine when i don't oc them. it still sucks
