re: partially installed sw Monday, July 16, 2007 at 12:28 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ms. Eagle (33640 messages posted) If this failed installation is recent, in the last few days, restoring a registry backup may eliminate the problem. If not, you'll probably need to manually uninstall it, by editing the registry and deleting any directories it created. There are only 5 backups by default... to restore a backup, click Start/Shutdown, choose Restart in MS DOS mode, Or reboot and press the CTRL key, just before Windows loads, until you get the boot menu. Choose Command prompt only. At the C:\> type: scanreg /restore Press enter. A good backup will have the word "Started" before it. Choose a date prior to this problem. Then hit Enter. You should get a message that Windows successfully restored the registry. Then CTRL_ALT_DEL to get back into Windows.
