Windows 98 Start up Problem
I am trying to debug a start up issue with Windows 98. When I start
up in "step by step" mode, I can get up to the point of loading the Windows drivers. I load a number of drivers and get to the point of loading the MSMOUSE driver. Whether I say Y or N, that is the last item I respond to. The computer is then frozen. The computer will start in safe mode. Thank you in advance for your thoughts and guidance. |

In safe mode... go into the control panel... under system...device manager then delete all instances for mouse.... then reboot and hopefully windows will reinstall the mouse driver |

Windows 98 Start up Problem
If Philo's suggestion does not help, look at the possibility of a virus,
trojan, spyware, etc., being loaded at boot and causing the problem. -- Regards Ron Badour MS MVP 1997 - 2008 "Meltel" wrote in message ... I am trying to debug a start up issue with Windows 98.
