  • Insert your Win98 CD rom in the drive. Select Start/Run, type SFC in the 'Open' box and press enter.
  • When System File Checker opens, select 'Extract One File from installation disk'.
  • Enter DDEML.DLL in the search box and press enter.
  • When the 'Extract File' window opens, the 'Restore From' box should be set to your CDROM drive letter as X:\Win98 (where 'X' is the assigned CDROM drive letter). The 'Save file in:' box should read C:\Windows\System.
  • Now select 'OK' and follow the prompts.
