my brother bought my mom a new scanner for her birthday, well the scanner got here today, so i hooked everything up and now when i boot the computer i get the windows 98 loading screen then and black screen comes up saying "Windows Protection Error, You need to restart your computer, press any key to restart" if i hit any key nothing happens, the computer is able to boot in safemode, but not normal windows, i removed the usb2 pci card i put in her computer for the scanner, but i still get the error, so can anyone tell me why im getting this or how to fix it? i change hardware in her computer all the time and i've never gotten this error before.
