Well i pulled out an old dusty box and i found old windows floppies from 1.01-98, i was originally a software collector. And i need some help, I already fixed tht WINA20.386 problem ppl complain about, my new problem is tht when it turns on, i type tht C:\WIN stuff, it shows the windows 3.0 boot screen. then everything is black... and i don't know how to fix it.

If your using VPC2K4, then you should be able to run "setup.exe" from inside the C:\Windows directory (DOS command line, not inside Windows). Change the video to the generic VGA driver and see if that fixes it...
