windows 98 restart
The most likely cause of this error is a hardware failure of some sort, such
as RAM or disk. You should run some diagnostics to check that the hardware is operating properly. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/188867 Troubleshooting Windows 98 Startup Problems If that does not identify the problem, try unplugging all unnecessary peripherals from the system, such as printer, scanner etc. Then boot to safe mode and see if the problem still occurs. If you can run the system properly in safe mode then you can try re-booting to normal mode. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/180902 How to Start a Windows 98-Based Computer in Safe Mode -- Jeff Richards ---------------------------------------- "randalel" wrote in message news When windows is booting up i get this error massage .Windows found an error in your system files and restored a recent back-up of the files to fix the problem.Then it tells you to restart,but nothing happens but the same massage, over an over ,thanks in advance. |

SYMPTOMS When you start your computer, you may receive the following error message: You have restored a good registry. Windows found an error in your system files and restored a recent backup of the files to fix the problem. When you restart your computer, you may receive the error message again. CAUSE This behavior can occur if the registry backup file you are trying to restore is damaged, or if the "damage" flag in the currently used registry file is not being reset by the Registry Checker tool. RESOLUTION To resolve this issue, run the Registry Checker tool using the /fix and /opt command-line switches. To do so, follow these steps: (1) Restart your computer, press and hold down the CTRL key until the Windows 98 Startup menu appears, and then choose Command prompt only. (2)At the command prompt, type scanreg /fix, and then press ENTER. NOTE: The /fix command-line switch causes the Registry Checker tool to repair any damaged portions of the registry. (3) After the Registry Checker tool finishes repairing the registry, press ENTER. (4) At the command prompt, type scanreg /opt, and then press ENTER. NOTE: The /opt command-line switch causes the Registry Checker tool to optimize the registry by removing unused space. (5) Restart your computer. If the behavior persists, attempt to restore a different registry backup file using the /restore command-line switch, or see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/186909 Registry Checker Continues to Detect Registry Damage ...........EOQ...............
