    probably the last one who used you pc didn't shutdown the computer properly and most of the time. when win98 didn;t shutdwon properly it gets an error when starting up try running it in last good config if that didn't work reinstall the OS..

    Re-install the OS or get a new OS to install. Sounds like the copy of 98 is hosed.
