WIN98 Hangs Up in Attempt to Load
I have WIN98SE on partition C:, WINXP on partition D:, and misc on partion
E: WINXP and WIN98SE both worked fine until I unplugged all external cables and had more RAM added by the store that I bought the computer from. When I reconneted the computer WIN98SE only had 16 colors. As I tried to add display drivers from the Intel CD that came with the computer loaded something I shouldn't have. Now WIN98 startup hangs up when it attempts to start, I select Safe Mode and it starts with two WIN98 screens then finally gets to a cyan screen with a picket fence like pattern at the top. Nothing further happens. I can reset, select WINXP and it works fine. I believe the chipset includes the display card equivaltent. I think that if I could load a generic display driver that I could then manage to load the correct display driver. I am also confused about whether both the video card and the display need drivers. I have WIN98 on another computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
