Thanks in advance for reading my post,
Here are my specs:
-850mhz Athlon Thunderbird-
-256mb PC-133 Kingston ram-
-Epox 8KTA3 Mainboard-
-40gb 7200/100 Maxtor HD-
-Leadtek Geforce 2 DH MX Pro-
-Aopen 16x Slot loading DVD Rom-
-Hewlett Packard 8x4x32 CD Burner-
-Not sure what it's called, but I have an ISA card that allows my cable modem to be plugged into it.-
-Antec 300watt case-
Anyways here's my problem:
I just built my new computer today. Everything went fine. I installed windows 98 sec ed, my new comp booted into windows fine. Then I installed the drivers for my scanner and then I installed the drivers for my Leadtek geforce 2 mx pro. All installs went fine and I was asked to reboot. I did, then a normal boot-up occured, the computer checked the floppy, scanned the HD, etc. The windows 98 screen popped up (the one that says windows 98 and has the blue colored loading bar thing) after that, the comp displayed a bunch of other numbers and at the bottom of the screen it said "Veryifing VMI Pool data" then the screen turns black. Nothing just black. Any idea what's going on?
Another thing, don't know if it is a related problem; During the windows 98 install it reboots a number of times, when it auto rebooted, the computer wouldn't really reboot. The monitor would turn off and I'd have to press the power botton to reboot it.
I hope someone can help, again thanks in advanced to anyone who can help.
