windows registry checker

I'm working on a computer that I put new hardware into. Once I've loaded all
the drivers and do a restart, the windows registry checker comes up and I
get that it "found an error in your system files and restored a recent
backup of the files to fix the problem. Press enter to restart the
computer." Once it restarts, I have to go back through and load all the
drivers again, only to have the registry checker undo it again. I've already
reloaded 98 to "fix" the problem, but to no avail.

Check that you do not have bad RAM.

If I can play Mr Ditto for a moment, I agree. I recently added some RAM
which turned out to be faulty. That message was one of the ways in which the
problem manifested itself.

Had the same problem,in fact still got it.Think it's faulty Ram but as it's an old computer and I'm dredging out the last few months before building another,I use Startup Manager to stop it loading at startup.This cures the registry check then I use a registry repair utilty to fix problem.Seems to work fine,now I don't have to keep re-loading drivers.
