I don't know what I did to cause my problem but my computer got somewhat mixed up. My cd rom drives come and go on the device manager. I kept freezing or hanging. (rebooted about 100 times). I did everything humanly possible to clean and defrag my machine including run my anti virus program and...

I have followed the advice I received here in trying to restore the Aspienum.vxd file with no luck. Here's what I do: 1) I place the Windows 98 CD in the CD-Rom drive(D). I have tried it with the Windows 98SE disc as well. 2) Startrunsfc.exe. (for system file checker), select the option to...
