Hi Guys, Ive been working on a customers machine for a coupe of days now trying to install windows 98SE on his new upgrade. System is as follows:
Motherboard - Jetway V600DAP
CPU - AMD Athlon 2600+
RAM - Generic 256MB
HDD - Seagate 80GB 2MB 7200RPM
VGA - Saphire Radeon 9200SE 128MB
CRW - BENQ 40x12x48
PSU - Eagle 350WEverytime i try to install th OS, it comes up with "SCATREG.EXE has caused an illegal operation and needs to close" The installation the contiues to install as normal. Everything looks ok but when you install ANY video card (ive tried the saphire 9200se, a jetway 9200se, and a jetway GeForce FX5700LE) The system just has a fit and keeps defaulting to 16 colours when restated. Ive also tried 2 different power supplies, 2 motherboards (one of which i KNOW is working as it is my own) 2 different CDRom drives, ive disconected everything except the essentials but it doesnt seem to make a difference, and ive tried 2 hard drives, but still the same
Any ideas? The customers does not want to change his OS either...GRRRRRRRR

I scanned my 98se partition and couldn't find that file. Are you sure the disk you are installing to is clean?

Sorry about that, should have copied and pasted instead of typing badly. I do have that file. Guess I can't be of any help.

From the error table i might suspect bad ram.
