Compatibility Mode Paging reduces overall system performance

[Pam]

I have Windows 98SE. My system got locked up and so I
Control/Alt/Deleted to reboot. When it rebooted, it got
the screen that shows what is in the autoexec.bat file and
just stayed there. So, I Control/Alt/Deleted again,
pressed F8 to get the safe mode menu. I choose to go into
safe mode. Once I got into windows, I went to control
panel and system. I choose the performance tab and I have
the following message: Compatibility Mode Paging reduces
overall system performance; Drive A is using an MS-DOS
compatibility mode file system; Drive C is using an MS-DOS
compatibility mode file system (A - being my floppy drive
and C - being my hard drive). I've searched for the NoIDE
in my registry and there is no reference. There is
nothing in my config.sys file. Need help.
