I have tried to formatting and loading win98 to winxp. succeeded in winme with great difficulty on different occassions. each time i re-boot, i get this ole32.dll error caused by explorer at start-up. rarely I get through, both . then i cannot open help, or at times control panel. other errors occassionally are Mlang.dll when I try to open control panel or explorer, if at all I succeed to boot. cannot install win98, as I get stuck somewher at channel set-up in the final stages I have partioned and formatted each time I install different OS. nothing seems to help. So I guess this could be a hardware problem. I checked memory with mem86, seems to be OK. I had some problems with fixing my display at some earlier stage, and the problem appeared after my brother tried to install a screen saver. I donot know anything of video drivers please helpppppp!!!!
