Packard Bell ...
After doing a thorough error check, I am only able
to boot Windows in safe mode. I've been thru all
the MS tech notes re. this error msg, but nothing
has helped. "Windows did not finish loading on
prev. attempt." Etc. Appreciate your help!

Blazer - I'm in Win95 not 98.
??? - This link is mostly a reprint of tech
support notes on the MS web site - I've tried ALL
this to no avail (there is no c:\windows\wnbootng.sts file).
Any more specific suggestions would be
appreciated! BTW - I don't have the original
Win95 CD either...

I don't know if this will help but try holding down the shift key during the boot then when you get the list of choices goto normal. Hope this helps
