Solve Win98 protection error failure

There are sometimes some unexplained failures with Win98. When you restart your computer after booting or installing new software, the hard disk indicator flashes for a long time, but only a few lines of blame are displayed on the screen, telling you "Windows protection error. You need restart your computer." (Windows protection error, need Restart your computer).

Follow the prompts for a warm boot and automatically enter Saft Mode to start Win98. After the startup is successful, the system is viewed in the control panel, and no abnormality is found. Restart the computer by shutting down the system from the Start menu, and the lines of blame appear again, in an infinite loop.

The author first ruled out the possibility of infection, and consulted the "Help" in Windows <;Help>; and some related information, there is no symptomatic prescription. If I reinstall the system and don't say that a lot of data on my hard disk will be lost accidentally, it is daunting to reinstall the system and related hardware and software.

After many twists and turns, I found that the reason for the failure is that the registry contains references to non-existent or corrupted files (such as .vxd files). ) registry key. “ Registry Checker” does not fix this registry key, causing the startup to fail.

We know that Win98 will rewrite registry keys and some related files when adding or removing software. This is the case, you do not have to completely reinstall Win98, just add or remove an insignificant component of Win98, you can achieve the purpose of repairing damaged files and restoring the system. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Press Ctrl key to enter the “Startup Menu”. 2. Select “step-by-step confirmation” to start the computer. 3. Press the ESC key to ignore config.sys and autoexec.bat and load other program items. 4. After the startup is successful, put it into the Win98 system disk.
