Analyze the nine major problems that lead to the failure of reinstalling the system.

There are many reasons for the failure of reinstalling the system. Let's take a look at the reasons that may cause the failure of the reinstallation system:

1. The version is reported incorrectly.

Q: My machine can't be started, trying to overwrite the installation, but the installer detects the Windows version and prompts an error, can't update or upgrade the installation, what should I do?

Answer: After installing the system, the win.com file of the original system records the version information of Windows. If we use the non-same version to overwrite the installation, the version error will occur, so that the coverage will be overwritten. Installation is blocked. At this time we may wish to use the Windows 98 boot disk to start the computer, enter Windows to win.com file to delete or rename, and then start the installation program under DOS to cover the installation, then the installation program is considered a new installation, covering the installation can proceed smoothly.

2, anti-virus function enabled

Q: When overwriting the installation system, the screen displays “Boot sector write!! VIRUS continue(Y/N)?” prompt error, resulting in overwriting Installation failed, what is the prompt, how to solve?

A: Actually, this is not a malfunction, but because of some applications in the original system, such as system recovery tools or virus-killing software, system firewall protection. Specifically, we have turned on anti-virus function in the BIOS, or some anti-virus software intelligently opens the anti-virus function in the BIOS during installation. Since Windows installs data to the main boot area of ​​the hard disk, it opens. Anti-virus function will cause the hard disk's main boot area to be unable to write any data, and the installer will of course not continue to run. When such an error occurs, you should uninstall the software from the original operating system by "Start" - "Settings" - "Control Panel" - "Add /Remove Programs", or enter the BIOS to temporarily disable the anti-virus function. shut down. Then overwrite or upgrade the system.

3, password protection

Q: I have never failed to install the system, but when I help my colleague to overwrite the installation system, the SU-0011 error message appears on the screen, so the installation can not continue I really lost my face. What is the problem?

A: This is obviously the original system has set the access password to the hard disk, so that the installation program can not complete the installation. This has to delete the password settings first, and then set the password of the hard disk after Windows 98 is installed.

4, heavy name directory

Q: In the process of installing Windows 98, the SU0167 error message appears, so that the installation is stranded, how can it not go on, what is the problem, how to solve?

A: The error message is caused by a duplicate directory. Because there is a directory named "Desktop" in the current directory, a directory named "Desktop" will be generated during the Windows 98 installation process to store the system files, so the installer cannot install Windows 98 in this directory. The solution is simple, just delete or rename the "Desktop" directory in the current directory, and then run the installer to succeed.

5, disk space "insufficient"

Q: When I installed Windows 98, the system prompted that the disk space is not enough, the installation can not be carried out. But look at the disk space and find that the actual disk space is enough, what should I do?

A: There is a disk space check in the Windows 98 system installation. If there are too many fragments on your disk, there will be a "bad disk space" prompt. It doesn't matter, please add the "/id" parameter when executing the Setup.exe command, that is, enter the "Setup /id" command, which will make the installer ignore the steps of checking the available disk space, so that the installation is successful.

6, can not find the upgrade program

Q: I originally installed the first version of the Windows 98 operating system in my computer, recently wanted to upgrade the system to Windows 98SE (Second Edition), Can be installed when prompted to find the upgrade program, can not be upgraded, how to solve?

A: The cause of this problem may be the installation version of the Windows 98SE operating system. If the Windows operating system already exists on the computer, you cannot install it with the installation version. You should use the upgrade version to install it. . If there is no upgraded version, you can also delete the Command.com file in the root directory of the system installation partition (usually the C drive), and then run the installer's installer to install it. This will not affect the contents of the original system.

7, the system configuration can not pass

Q: My computer installed Windows 98, when the implementation of the system configuration step, there are problems, try several times are not successful, very distressed, can inform What are the reasons and solutions?

Answer: When the system is installed, the system will automatically shut down or not respond, and some will prompt "Fatal abnormal error occurs at 0137" or "0028 error". This situation is usually caused by hardware problems. The main reason is that the chip is overheated. The solution can be: restore the CPU overclocking setting; check whether the CPU cooling fan is off or stopped; whether the main chip cooling fan of the display card falls off or stops; whether the memory module or the hard disk is faulty; whether the heat dissipation condition in the chassis is good, etc. Then, take countermeasures according to the results of the inspection or judgment.

8, extended memory error

Q: When installing Windows 98, the prompt "Standard Mode: Fault in MS-DOS Extender" appears, so the system can not continue to install. What does this mean and how to deal with it?

A: The meaning of this prompt is: MS-DOS extended memory error in standard mode. The solution can be used to enter DOS with the boot disk. Open the Config.sys file with the Edit command in the C drive. Type "REM" in front of the "EMM386" statement of the file to invalidate the statement. The system can be rebooted by the reboot program. .

9. Hardware detection stalls

Q: When installing Windows 98, the installer stops when performing hardware detection. why? How to do?

A: This is caused by a hardware error. It is recommended to turn off the machine, stop for more than 10 seconds, and then turn it back on. When the computer starts, re-run the installer. Since the program has been installed, select the "Use Safe Recovery" option so that the part that caused the error will be skipped during hardware detection. If the system stops again, re-execute the above steps until the error section is skipped, causing the hardware test execution to end.
