what does it mean when it says
WINDOWS HELP
CANNOT FIND THE /Q FILE.
DO YOU WANT TO TRY TO FIND THE FILE YOURSELF?

This is something new that pops up when i turn on my computer.

This is an anomaly possibly in c:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
(a file Win98 does not need.) Rename it
AUTOEXEC.BAK and reboot.
Then post results to this same Subject name
and we can follow up.
