166354 2003-08-09 08:17:00 OS (MS ME ) will not load - error message says systems config halted, does not load on restart and cannot solve problem using safe mode. Have not added any new hardware of software. anthea (4385)
166355 2003-08-09 08:26:00 Have you scandisk in safe mode?
If so, then get to the menu on bootup that you choose safe mode, BUT choose command prompt instead. then type SCANDISK C:

The dos scandisk can fix more than the windows one.
Come back and let us know how you got on.

166357 2003-08-19 00:48:00 as a last resort format and reinstall after saving data in safe mode to another partition or cdr , by the way 98SE is better kiwibeat (304)
166358 2003-08-19 03:01:00 Try rebooting but using F8 to divert to the startup menu and choosing Step by Step mode. This may pinpoint the problem step. Robin S_ (86)
166359 2003-08-19 11:35:00 does it tell u if any files are corrupted or missing? try booting off the CD or boot in Safe mode. vk_dre (195)
166360 2003-08-24 05:42:00 try in safe mode reloading graphics drivers or your mother board drivers the via 4in 1 drivers reinstalled did the trick for me in 98SE after a image restore failed to boot up properly kiwibeat (304)
