I have an old computer Im working on. P2 450mhz. I installed a different hard drive and did a clean install of 98. Everything appears to work fine until shutting down. It gives the windows icon and states windows shutting down. At that point it just stays and never cuts off. Hitting the power button does not cut the computer off, you have to unplug the unit.
Sometimes on boot up it will state windows detects problem need to restart computer. This only occurs very occasionally.
This was a known problem with Win98. MS had a patch, but since official support for Win98 ended in 2006, it is no longer available from MS. You can get it from
PCWorld however.
