Clean Install Problems
I took in a friends computer to do a back up and clean
install. Windows 98SE intstalls okay as do the LAN and sound drivers for the motherboard. The problem is when I try to install the AGP to PCI driver, as soon as I reboot I get a message saying "Windows protection error. You need to restart your computer" and that's all it will do unless I start it in safe mode. The Control Panel = System = Device Manager shows an AGP port but I can't install the drivers for the graphics card. It's showing as a standard PCI device. It's a Radeon 9200SE with an SIS Chipset on the m/b. |
