Windows 98 question
I have an older Packard Bell pentium 200 with 32 MB RAM running Windows 98 (not SE)
I have hardly NOTHING on the hard drive, and have defragmented it ... now I am trying to re-install OFFICE 97 Standard but after an hour it is still only 39% done ... If I give it the three finger salute, it says Office setup is not responding, but if I cancel out and go back to setup, it is moving, just very very slow .. could anybody offer me any suggestions what may be causing it to go so slow, and how I might fix it ?? I have nothing running in the task manager. Any help at all would be appreciated  |

I had a similar prob to this on my old laptop. It ended up being the HD, which I had to replace.

I reformatted a few times and scan disk. Everytime I ran scandisk more and more bad sectors kept popping up. It got to the point I couldn't even format it. Maybe scandisk will tell you something. |
