What causes this message?"MSGSRV32 CAUSED A GENERAL
PROTECTION FAULT IN MODULE KRNL386.EXE" BECAUSE I CANNOT
GET PASSED IT WHEN I AM HALF WAY THROUGH INSTALLING WIN98.

PK,

See this MS article.
General Protection Fault or Invalid Page Fault During Setup
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=209321

Are you installing from setup files on your HD or from the Win 98
CDrom. In this case it looks like it's better to install from the
CD. However, read the article all the way.
