Hi
I always seemed to have a problem with Windows 98 SE startup. I recently brought a reconditioned pc because of this and am about to give my old one to a friend. I want to try to reinstall Windows 98 on her computer - can somebody tell me a) if this is feasible and b) will she lose all the information and/or programmes left on the pc? I am hoping to eradicate the start-up problem this way (this prob started when trying to install Norton Antivirus, when the pc crashed half way through installation - when restarting, I tried to start install again but the pc detected Norton already installed and now I cannot uninstall or reinstall it!)
Can I reinstall Windows 98 and is it likely to prevent this start-up problem if I do? As you can see from the above, I am a complete beginner with this so please keep any explanations really simple for me! Many thanks.
