Does anyone have any suggestions on what wrong it is?
When I start Win 98, after it shows win 98 logo, then a mark keeps flashing
forever. When I reset it and select safe mode, the win 98 is able to start.
Does anyone havea any suggestions on what wrong it is?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Eric

As you have confirmed that you can start in safe mode, the process will
involve determining the component that is causing the problem. See here for
a description of how to disable startup items and then add them back
progressively to determine the problem one.
