Windows error during videocard installation
So I have the following problem:
Recently, I have installed Windows 98SE on my computer (before that, I was running Win98). So everything during the 98SE installation went fine, and the installation has been succesfull. However, when I first used my computer again, I found out that my videocard (Diamond Stealth S220) had not been installed yet. So I tried to find new hardware, but the only thing I could find was an "unidentified device" (I don't know wether this is a good translation, since I'm Dutch). So I assume that this is my videocard, since there aren't any other objects that qualify as such. Anyway, I've found my videocard software, but when I try to install it, I keep getting the same error, and I don't know what it means or what exactly the problem is: (NOTE: First line is in Dutch, but I believe it's the standard message Windows gives, when an error occures) INSTALL heeft een fout met betrekking tot een ongeldige pagina veroorzaakt in module INSTALL.EXE op0167:0040ec5c. Registers: EAX=fffffffd CS=0167 EIP=0040ec5c EFLGS=00010282 EBX=00000005 SS=016f ESP=006be760 EBP=006be77c ECX=fffffffc DS=016f ESI=006be844 FS=35cf EDX=00000000 ES=016f EDI=006bfac0 GS=0000 Bytes in CS:EIP: 8b 12 8b c1 49 85 c0 75 f7 85 d2 74 b0 83 c2 08 Stackdump: 00000010 00444434 0045e5e4 00000000 006be8fc 0040ec86 00000001 006be908 004166c4 006be83c 00000002 00000001 006bea78 0044444c 007e9c4c 00445874 This problem occures almost at the end (say 80 percent) of the installation proces. Before I installed Win98SE (I was working with Win98 that time), everything worked out fine, and I haven't been fooling around with hardware, so I know all hardware is connected correctly. I really hope someone can help me fix this, or just give me clue about what's wrong, because actually, we are talking about the computer of my neighbours, so I kinda feel like I've blasted their system. Kind Regards --SungShik Jongmans, the Netherlands P.S. I don't know whether I've posted this in the right discussiongroup, so I'm sorry if there's a more specialized one for this particular problem. |

Visit the video card's site and download the latest
Windows 98 driver file for it, remove the "Other device", and install the update driver by double-clicking on its file. Look in the Device Manager to make sure that the video card's make and model is listed under Display adapter. You should also do a clean up of the Device Manager in Safe mode. See this page if you want to know how to do it: http://www.pcbuyerbeware.co.uk/Image2.htm Eric, http://www.pcbuyerbeware.co.uk/ http://www.sharedbirthday.co.uk/ -----Original Message----- So I have the following problem: Recently, I have installed Windows 98SE on my computer (before that, I was running Win98).
