I'm running a clone with 98SE. Have plenty of RAM and plenty of HD space. Processor is an AMD K-6. Have had it about 4 years. I installed a CD burner about 2 weeks ago which worked fine. When I turned the PC on today it gave me an error message of "hard drive failure" on both of my hard drives...

When we turn the computer on, it stops in DOS mode with the options 1: normal, 2: logged, 3: safemode, 4: step by step confirmation, 5: command prompt only, 6: safe mode command prompt only. When normal is entered the message "incorrect resource assignment" comes up and the computer freezes...

I then click on number 1 "Normal" and it then it goes into windows. It was just fine before I updated my chipset. Is that what effected it? Why should it?

When I go to shut down my computer I get a Message box saying that I must close down file svc32 before I can close down. How can I stop this Message comeing up?

I have many programs in MSconfig. utilities startup that are no longer installed on my computer. I know they really don't affect anything as long as they are unchecked, but it makes for a long unneccessary list. I would like to get these programs out of there, but don't know how. I have...

My computer turned itself off and now won't turn back on. I push the button and nothing happens. It's not the outlet it's connected to, nor do I think it's the power cord. HELP PLEASE!

I'm not sure if this is the correct newsgroup, but here we go. My system tends to seize/freeze for short periods whilst browsing the net (doesn't happen off the net at all, even when displaying avi files). Certain sites cause the seizing more than others,...

I have power management invoked on my 98se sys, with a Gigabyte mobo and AMI bios, to put my monitor to sleep, but it only works if I leave the computer with a program window of some sort still open (it doesnt matter what it might be - a window for a web browser, word processor, program, whatever),...
