Default put in wrong adapter--help!

Hi,

I selected the wrong adapter on win98 and now when I boot
up, I just get a black screen. I went into safe mode and
changed the adapter but I get a message saying that any
settings made in safe mode will revert back to what they
were before.

help! any way to reverse it back to the way it was?

thanks in advance

Boot to safe mode and remove all the adapter devices. Windows will install
a default VGA adapter when you reboot. Then you can install the correct
adapter.
