ok, i went over to my brothers house and his computer was not working. He was getting windows protection errors. I tried safe mode and that wouldn't work either, so i formated his computer. I then used a win98 bootup disk and fdisked and formatted his computer. However i can not get windows to load
I tried running setup.exe off the cd and i copied all the files to the
hard drive and ran it off there as well. When i load setup it runs
scandisk on the C: drive and says everything is fine. So i exit out of that, and it says initializing registry, then copying files needed for windows setup
about two seconds after it says copying files needed for windows setup it returns right back to the directory (ie: C:\Win98se)
there are no errors or anything, and frankly i'm baffeled. The only
thing i can think of is maybe one of the ram sticks have gone bad.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
