My E-3200 desktop with Win98 has had a problem booting up twice
recently. After recognizing the CD ROM, it starts displaying lines
and lines of drivers, plus MSD, MSD, MSD, MSD, etc. After shutting
it down a few times, it reboots normally.


Is this a registry issue?


Other than doing a "scanreg /restore" the next time this happens,
is there something I can do to prevent this from occurring again?


Got a great backup program? If not, this one will do the job for
free.

That is the first thing I would do.


According to the system requirements listed at that site, it
doesn't support Win 9x, so it won't do him much good. :-(
