OK, well decided to reformat and to re-install win98. I place in win95 boot disk (from putergeek.com they say it works for win95 and up, and they didnt have a 98 boot disk so used the 95 one) And it loads CD driver, i go to my CD drive, then run setup on win98 CD. All good, then it says something like "perform routine system check" , and then about 2 seconds later my screen is filled with

" A whoel screen of them and i cant type. I left it gonig for like 10 mniutes to see if it was actually donig something but CD drive wasnt maknig any sounds of reading/ spinning CD so i restarted and tried again,. got same crap. WHY or what does the 6,000 "\" marks mean? I used this win98 Cd before, worked ggreat on the comp i'm on, is it the boot disk, or something bad with HDD that it doesnt like?! .
Any help appreciated
