Computer is Down
One of my 'trusty' Win 98 computers is down this afternoon. I was using it this am without any problems but this afternoon after it has booted up rather than my normal screen I get a Win98 Setup screen and it is asking me for my Product Key? Well, I enter the key and get nothing, then an Explorer window pops up saying
This Program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down
Report says
Explorer caused an invalid fault in module Explorer.EXE at 0167:00401F31
Registers are listed
Exx, etc but not sure what they mean

When I hit Alt Ctrl Del it shows nothing running and now it does not ask for the Product Key anymore just puts up the Explorer message.
Any ideas? I tried to boot it up with the Win98 cd installed but I get the same thing. The computer will access Setup on startup but all looks normal to me, for what I know lol.
Any help would be appreciated

Good Luck to All! :^)
