Default MSGSRV 32 error in setup

While installing Windows 98; after the computer has rebooted I type in the
Key and shortly after that error MSGSRA 32 comes up - message is " An error
has occured in your program. To keep working anyway click ignore & save your
work in a new file. To quite this program, click close. You will loose
information you enetered since your last save. Then there is the choice to
either close or ignore.

I have put in another hard drive incase there was an error on the HDD.

Any suggestions - I would be grateful of assistance.

Default MSGSRV 32 error in setup

Open the case and remove and reseat the memory modules. If this doesn't
help, try running setup with the "/c" switch.

setup /c

Thanks Ben so much for your input. On this particular machine it did not work
- I think it is time to retire this little old computer. However I will
certainly remember your advise especially the /c. If you do come back here
again, I would really appreciate you telling me what /c is.

The "/c" switch tells setup to run without using its disk caching software.
Try removing unnecessary peripherals, like sound and network cards.
Also, go into the BIOS setup and make sure that boot virus detection
is disabled. Be sure to save any changes when exiting.
