View Full Version : Help please! Re-installing W98 w/o deleting files


May 28th 04, 06:26 AM
Does anyone know how? I am a non-techie but am familiar
with working PC's. I am having difficulty troubleshooting
from the C:\ prompt and have been searching sites all
night. Is there anyway to get around re-installing?

Please adjust your lingo for someone who is not familiar
with the technical lingo involved in troubleshooting
problems.

Thanks in advance.

You haven't told us what the problems are--how can we help? You can install
W98 over the top of the existing system; however, I find that it quite often
doesn't solve anything.
