Why does RJ keep cross-posting to so many newsgroups? Why does Jane attack Gary S. Terhune when he is a cool and helpful person? Why do we need to continue to discuss religion here in this newsgroup? I am partly responsible for the third question. I have many times tried to say how great...

I was in the middle of cleaning and reinstalling windows 98 on my computer, then the computer was shut down. Now when I try to go and do over again it just tells me missing operating system. it won't let me type anything, restart the process, or do anything. It is just a black screen and just...
