When I boot my PC under Windows 98, a
message indicates there is a registry
error and that Windows will fix the
registry. What should I do?
!
This bug is documented at:
http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/storagedrivers/ultraATA
To fix this problem, install the latest IDE driver on HP’swebsite
(version 6.01.007 or later). Ensure that you install the chipset
driver before the IDE driver.Models purchased after November 1st
2000 are supplied with the correct driver.
My PC runs scandisk when I boot under
Windows 98 SE even if the previous
shutdown appeared to finish normally.
Why?
!
Sometimes your PC may appear to shutdown successfully when it
it has not. In these cases the operating system thinks that
Windows has been shutdown incorrectly and runs scandisk.
