So i shutdown windows and reboot in MS-DOS mode and i do whatever and i hit Ctrl-C and type exit to exit MS-DOS mode and it will restart windows 98. When i exit MS-DOS to windows 98 i get a blue screen that says: Invalid VxD dynamic link call from NWLINK (01) * 0000010F to device "0028", service 8000.your windows configuration is invalid.
Please run windows setup program, to continue using windows press enter or Y Warning continuing using windows your system may become unstable, to exit or stop using windows press N.(after pressing no i get a message saying please run windows setup program, Press any key to continue and then it shuts down and when i start windows again everything is fine but the screen appears only when i exit MS-DOS.
How do i fix this error screen from coming back ???

Exit MS-DOS to Win 98????

 Do you mean exit Win 98 to MS-DOS???

What happens when you enter command from Start->Run from Windows 98 "without selecting shutdown 'restart in dos mode'"?

@Dave - I think the OP means when he uses the Exit command to return to windows having finished in the Command shell.

@OP - this error can be caused by a defective ram stick, try reseating your ram.  If you have more than one stick try using one at a time to identify the defective one if ram is the problem.

Good luck.
