New Life for old machine
Anyone know of a good "how to" manual for restoring an
old Windows 98 machine? I inherited a '98 and would like to learn something and get this thing humming again. Right now it doesn't load up consistently. Sort of starting from scratch. Thanks

Why not post a bit more info about the machine.

This is not the correct place for a 'how to' manual - no-one is going to
write you an essay on a topic that broad. Ask some specific questions about specific problems and people will respond. If you want a general reference manual then there are many available on the www, such as http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...82350?v=glance -- Jeff Richards MS MVP (DTS) "Keith" wrote in message ...
