    Hello all,


    Hopefully someone can help me with my questions. Recently I had my puter crash hard and got some help here that was very helpfull in getting it back up and running (thanks again). When I was done installing Win98SE I had to install a program called SIS
    version V.82B that supports all the drivers that my mother board needs. I started Installation and I got a window that asked me to
    define the correct path name for the Windows OS and to be honest I didnt know what that was. I dont recall haveing that come up when I first installed it, so.... after trying to put something in like C:\ or D:\ it said that was the wrong path so I told it to ignore, the program moved on and finished up. All seems to be ok but is there anyway to make sure it went in right?

    Next I ran a test on my pc at PcPitStop.com and all came out good
    but I got a test result that said my drive didnt have a name, it was refering to the C: and im not sure what that means or how I can fix it if it does need a name.

    Thanks again for all your patcience, and sorry for the lack of knowledge as I am still learning

    In some cases the SiS chipset drivers are built in to Windows, and so I wouldn't worry about them installing properly.
    To "name" the drive, open Explorer, right click your C drive, select Properties, and give it a name, any name.
