*-* About Bootup Problem on E-3200

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. :-(

Ken & Scott,

A solution would be to use clonezilla, it will clone a drive to
another drive the same size or larger...

I like Clonezilla and use it all the time, it is a free stand alone
Linux Live CD, and it will clone most drives, Linux or Microsoft
formats...

Certainly is an easy way to back up your hard drive.

Another option would be to grab "DoubleSafety" from the GAOTD website.
As it is free today only.
