windows media player

i have just downloaded windows media player for windows 98, on reboot the
following message comes up
an exception OE has occurred at 0028:C18327B3 in vxd scsi1hip (03) + 00000583
this was called from 0028:c1832738 in vxd scsi1hip(03) + 00000508
the pc only responds in safemode, i have tried to remove the program from
the add / remove hardware but it is not listed

It's not scsi1hip, it's scsi1hlp...the filename is scsi1hlp.vxd

If you can start Windows in either normal mode or Safe Mode, open Windows Explorer
and navigate to the C:\Windows\System\iosubsys folder, and rename the SCSI1HLP.VxD
file to SCSI1HLP.VX_, or SCSI1HLP.BAD, then restart.

I use Tweakui's "faultlog" feature. It allows errors such as the OP's
to be automatically logged to file. For one thing, this makes it easy
to copy and paste the exact message into one's newsreader. As a bonus,
the OP wouldn't even need to use the Shift key.

The OP can create the relevant registry entry by using Notepad to
paste the following 4 lines into a faultlog.reg file.

================================================== ================
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Fault]
"LogFile"="C:\\WINDOWS\\FAULTLOG.TXT"
================================================== ================

If required, edit "WINDOWS" to reflect the winbootdir for your setup.

Click on the .reg file to import its contents into the registry.

Yes, I have been using that regedit since long before I installed TweakUI. ;-)
Unfortunately, though, blue screen errors, such as Fatal Exceptions, are not logged.
The faultlog feature only logs the details of "illegal operation" type error
messages.
