I had to resort to this scanreg restore and noticed after that some files that I had done recently 'after' the date I chose for restore, were still there. Also, i had to reinstall a few of my programs and drivers. SO what is the purpose of this syntax?

I'm having a problem with Win98. It was working fine with a new memory stick and new CD-RW drive added. I installed the first of the new software from the CD-RW set, and rebooted as asked.

My computer W98 SE version consistently drops down to 1% at least 5 times a day. What is going on?
