windows 98 startup problem Friday, July 6, 2007 at 10:48 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by alexkidd86 (17 messages posted) im having a problem with my computer. this problem started yesterday. It all started when i had to restart my computer with ctrl alt and delete because my internet browsers froze and i couldnt restart the computer the normal way. So when the computer restarted, it got stuck on the dell logo and then i heard clicking noises coming from the inside of the computer, so windows 98 didnt start up. when i waited a few seconds, a black screen appeared that told me something about inserting a boot diskette in drive a . I restarted the computer again, and windows 98 still didnt start up and i kept on hearing the same clicking noise coming from the inside of the computer. Then i waited a few minutes later, and windows 98 started up again. But the same problem occurred again today. I dont know where this problem is coming from, but it seems to be coming from the clicking noise from the inside of the computer, and it also seems to be happening whenever i restart the computer. is there a way to fix this problem?
