help..help..help!!!!
After installing Win98 SE ,my pc either restarts or hangs when trying to shut it down! I faced the same problems on another pc with the same copy of Win98.
Any ideas???

regards

Could be the hardware thats in the pc?

conflicting with other hardware, so pleaze post more info.

i dont think it has anything to do with hardware , since both computers were shuting down normaly with the older version of Win98.
I suspect it is my copy of Win98 SE.

Any further help would be greatly appreciated..!
