*** I do not have the cd of my Win98 anymore, so I am unable to try reinstalling. I have also tried uninstalling/reinstalling TCPI/IP through my ISP support team by enabling DNS to no avail. They too, seem to be at a loss as to what my problem may be. Please help if you can !!! Thanking you, in advance, for help anyone may have

*** sjajdld@yahoo.com

Have you tried reinstalling AOL? Have you tried resetting your router? Also if your original problem was solved here it would still be here in your orginal screen name.

And try the link just below.
http://www.lhric.org/web/echalk/docs/timingout.pdf

Yep...been through netscape...mozilla...firefox...etc....does the same type of thing with all of them. It's funny that it happened again and still the same as the last time...no one knows how to fix it ! I knew I should have saved those papers a littleeeeee bit longer I just recently threw them out, doing a double take at them, and thought....Nah I won't need this again Ughhhhhhhhhh

I did the on-line virus scan and it turned up absolutely nothing. How can or do I put the Windows 98 on C:\windows\system instead of the C:\windows.000\system ??? I still am getting the limited amount of browseing time before I have to restart for another 4 to 5 minutes...

As for the AVG...I had it on my computer once before and had nothing but problems with it. For that reason, I'd rather not go down that road again consdiering I'm having enough trouble already

Hi check suggestions at.

Unless you reinstall your Win98 will have to stay in C:\Windows.000\system
Not having an Anti-virus program running in the background will only add to you problem.
Avg not the only Av out there.

I did the IE repair (yet again) and still have the same trouble as in the beginning. Have to restart to gain more time to web sites... Does anyone else know why or how my Win 98 was installed to the C:\windows.000\system instead of to C:\windows\system and how do I correct this ? Any help at all is greatly appreciayed Thanks !!!

Not sure I know how to reset my router....? I don't have aol for internet...just my daughter uses the aol instant messageing and that is working just fine, same as my yahoo instant messenger.

Ok, well... This all started after I originally was "cleaning out" my system. I tend to think I know more than I actually do, as far as computers go, lol It started with me getting a screen saying IExplorer has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. This would happen upon starting up the computer....everything would "load" fine until it got to my desktop. Then all I would get is a blank screen with the error message that Explorer has caused a error in page fault...module something or other. I couldn't even get on to see my icons or anything at all. So I....thinking I am smart...decided to "fix" this myself. I tried to restore an older IE by starting through hitting F8 and changing a few things.
I went to step by step confirmation to load everything. That didn't work, I tried safe mode, didn't work. I tried command prompt and that is where I ended up "fixing" the IE problem. I typed in scanreg and did a scan and saved it. It said it may have been corrupted and wanted me to restore an older IE which I did. The trouble seemed fixed. I restarted and all was fine...except it was very strange old settings...fonts, color, settings, etc. I tried to change all of that by going into control panel and display settings....nothing worked. I made it worse. Sooooooo...I went back and decided to pick ANOTHER IE that was saved in the scanreg F8 screen thing...I restored that version and that must have been the one I was having the same type of trouble I am having now. This is when my "timing out" all started. I tried to go back and restore the other one from before and all that was there was the recent versions I did/had...nothing older. So...my problem is now that I have the old IE saved scanreg that gave me trouble about a year ago. I can't recall what I did to correct it either. It was something very simple...but extremely frustrating. I have tried the IE repair and all I have mentioned b4:

So now, here I am...what to do next ? I would love to just ditch this, but I'm not in a position to just go buy a whole new computer. ( I have an 18 y/o daughter who is a senior...college this Fall....she's getting a laptop, nuff said !!!!) Any help at all is greatly appreciated

I am back to square one..........where ever that may be ! ???????

The reason windows is in the 000 folder is because there has been an overinstall and 98 tries to create that folder which it did instead of overinstalling to the orginal 98 location.
Blues is right...without the 98cd your probably out of luck on that one.

However this should not be the cause of your browsing problem....I ll be thinking on it and maybe someone who has an idea will pop in and post it.

BTW: blues_harp28 I can't open that page:

http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/answers/16.html

it just hangs like it is loading. I can go anywhere else...is it the right address?

And no...it was not through this site that I fixed it before...not that I recall. I tried to enter other emails addresses to see if I had a different username...but it didn't recognize any of them.
