Do you have the your Win98 boot disk? If that's the OS on the system, you'll need that. Or, if the "thing" that was deleted was really important, it might not boot. Your best bet might be to just reinstall the original OS and then to the 98 upgrade again. Of course you'll lose all the stuff on the hard drive, but...

See if you can get into DOS Prompt.

Once there type scanreg (leave space here) /restore.

It will give you a option on which one to go back to, select the one closes to today.

If you have installed any programs after that date they will not work. You will have to do a reinstall of the programs that do not work.

If this fails format is in order.

One day I will be a pro, Thanks Andy
