Just plug in the disk, and run setup. If you ask for a full report when prompted, it will tell you if there's any hardware or software...
PM should take care of moving and resizing any partitions. If you are logged in to XP when you run everything, then it will restart in DOS if it...
With PM, you can set up XP as the main boot, then make a primary partition and install 98, using boot magic to select. I would make XP's...
Have you booted to safe mode, and removed all the sound stuff from device mangler like I said? Did you install the correct driver when prompted?
Dig through the motherboard manual, and reset the CMOS. See if you can get past the error then.
Is the sound enabled in BIOS? Is there any other conflicts in device mangler? Can you manually assign resources for the audio? Can you see what...
Dual/multi boot system's work well, if set up correctly in the first place. The problems arise when one OS goes south, and XP is the only boot...
If you still wish to have a bootable Win98 on C, and retain XP, with dual boot options, it's even more complicated. Start by reading this:...
There's a bit more to it. You can't just move boot.ini to C, and expect it to work. You also need ntdetect.com, ntldr, and possibly bootsect.dos...
Looks like it's making it almost all the way through POST, but maybe hanging right at the end, or when initializing video or hard drives. Have...

XP does not have "spyware ". It does have automatic updates, and error reporting. The Blackviper site will help you turn those off. It also...
Why did you change RAM? The message "Checking NVRAM" is standard. If the computer stopped working or something, please post exactly where it...
It doesn't matter one little bit how big it is. In XP, Windows want's to set a swap of 768 meg. It only ever uses about 80 meg, but there's always...
I know exactly how you feel. Sometimes, there's just no way around it, and to save frustration (and hair) a format/install just makes it...
Paul43, just forget about setting a swap size. Let windows handle it. With 512 meg of RAM, it's probably not going to get used anyhow, and if it...
If you must, you could try a reload. I still think there's some difference in hardware that's not allowing the modem to install correctly, or...
Thankyou. :D I like to take the AOL (and other "free ") CD's, and zap em in a microwave until they warp out. Drill a little hole, and hang em...
No, the wizard will simply install DUN, and prompt you for the settings for your ISP. Generally, all you need is the phone number to dial (you...
It sounds like the store didn't recondition it properly in the first place. The only reason that Windows would lose all the hardware settings (on...
Separate names with a comma.
