What *exactly* is the problem you are experiencing? Please describe it step-by-step including the complete *verbatim* text of the error messages. Here is one article that may help with your Safe Mode problem: The Computer Always Starts in Safe Mode Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 306615 http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=306615 As for himem, this is fully supported in Windows 98. In fact himem.sys is an essential file that must be loaded during the startup in order for Windows 98 to load successfully. If you are experiencing problems with himem.sys at startup then this might be caused by a defective RAM memory chip in your computer as himem.sys will refuse to load if it detects defective memory. But we need to have the actual error message information in order to determine if that is what is happening in your case. Here is a web site that has some suggestions regarding newsgroup postings that you might find interesting and useful: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
