As my post reveal, my problems have gotten progressively worse. At this point I'm just trying to remove Windows 98 and (hopefully) the virus I have. The computer won't boot in safe mode or normally.On start up it is always looking for a driver called CMMON.vxd. Previously the computer was looking for four others, but I managed to fix them.
Thus I am limited to using only command prompt. I found the method using SMARTdrv and uninstall.exe, but upon running SMARTdrv, I get an error saying the computer needs HIMEM.sys, check config.sys. So I checked config.sys and its empty
I tried adding "device=c:\windows\himem.sys" which is the only line now in my config.sys. Even after rebooting, SMARTdrv still will not run.
How can I remove Windows 98 now? What do I do?
Thank you!
