Windows 98 startup problems
Posted: Wed Jul 13, 2005 5:45 amA friend running Win 98 on her computer is experiencing startup issues.
Recently she was surfing the net when her system hung, she automatically turned the pc off (grrr) and now when she attempts to start the pc, before windows starts is prompted by a Windows advanced boot option menu. On selecting resume normal startup, her system hangs during the Windows startup process.
Could she have a virus?
Should i try and start in Safe Mode and troubleshoot from there?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
