I have a really irritating thing that happens to my win 98 system. Up until about a month ago Everything on my machine was fine. Then I noticed when I would go and shut down or try and do a scan disk my machine would just freeze up. I reformatted and everything was fine again. a week later Boom it happens again. Since then I have had to do this process over and over. Does anybody have any clue what could be going on?

Yes! Boy have I seen this one before. Windows 98 has a issue with fast shutdown. Go to Microsoft and look up Q187607 on tech net. It will give you the location of the Patch. If you are having a problem with scandisk and defrag odds are you are running Mcafee 4.5 if so then disable it before running those two programs.
Hope this helps

Good call Wilbur. The Windows 98 Second Edition Shutdown Supplement might even resolve the issue. I've applied it to none Second Edition systems with success.

It is available at http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/contents/WURecommended/S_WUFe atured/Win98SE/Default.asp
