Error message in Windows 98 Second Edition

I am unable to run Windows 98 SE in normal mode. Fortunately, I can run it
in safe mode. When I try to run Windows 98 SE in normal mode then I receive
a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death --- grin). The windows fatal exception is as
follows:

Fatal exception 0D occurred at 0147:0000BC9D

I have a dual-boot with XP Professional which still works great. However, I
also want 98SE to work great as well. Thanks for your help and I look
forward to getting 98SE up and running at full speed.

Well PCR, you were right that eventually XP Pro. would hurt 98SE I guess --
grin. Thanks in advance for all of the help and I am looking forward to
posting here again via Mozilla Thunderbird on the 98SE side of my computer.
Gary I hope your health is well and I hope all the MVP's here are doing great.

This happens during boot, I suppose? You can use the W98 bootmenu to create
a bootlog file, and then use 'Bootlog Analyzer'
http://www.woundedmoon.org/win32/bootloganalyzer123.html to find which
driver/software causes the crash.

Thank you. I downloaded and used the software. I analyzed the failures and
it seems like a bunch of fonts failed to load for some reason. I did not see
anything else. Is the solution to remove all the problem fonts or is the
problem deeper than that. Fortunately, the system still boots 98SE in safe
mode and it is nice to be able to use XP Pro. for the Internet while the 98SE
system is partially down.

The main font Windows needs for full boot is MARLETT.TTF.
So it is worth using SFC (System File Checker) to see
whether this one file has been damaged. SFC will on
command reinstal it from your Win98 CD.

snip

No...do not remove the fonts...Since a lot of the fonts are not
loading...(and I've seen that before) the problem
is not typically corrupted fonts...but a problem elsewhere...
such as a corrupted video driver etc

Philo, do you suggest reinstalling the video and then sound card drivers or
do I need to try something else.

That couldn't hurt, either. Perhaps even try the reverse, & turn
Hardware Acceleration off, especially if you are not using ATM. If it
works to turn off Hardware Acceleration, then the video drivers indeed
are suspect, as Philo says. So, overinstall them. I have a larger post
for that, if you want.

Yes, I'd give that a try

Okay, the video drivers are fine. There may be an issue with the sound card
drivers. It is a Sound Blaster Audigy. After, I uninstall and reinstall the
sound card drivers then I can eliminate that. Then, I will proceed to go
through PCR's suggestions. Thanks everyone for the advice so far.
