re: Can not boot up in standard mode Friday, January 9, 2009 at 12:33 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by rob (25 messages posted) If there are to many to see in one to type Dir /p which is a Pause switch. When the screen fills just press a key to let it file again. When you see the WINDOWS |< DIR > or PROGRA~1 < DIR > look at the date |when created. Mine was done a month |ago 30/11/08. |If its more that a year then do a rebuild, you will be |supprised of the difference. |I'm presuming you have the Win98SE CD? I checked both the Windows Dir and the Progra~1 and the date is 2-28-04 I'm pretty sure that I did a "dirty reinstall since then. I assume you mean "rebuild" as in a reinstall? I have tried to access the D: drive through the command prompt by typing in D: Enter and it's telling me that drive in not available. Any tips on a reinstall? Or maybe I can fix a damaged file manually?
