Question about 'Resolving Hardware Conflicts'

I have a question about Resolving Hardware Conflicts:

I have attempted on a number of occasions to upgrade my OS from Win 95 to Win 98. However, every time I do it I get a resource conflict with my modem (Zoom), sound card (SB Live) and my SCSI controllers (CD-ROm and HDD). with the results I have no modem, sound or CD rom. The resource tab for all of these devices says there is no conflicts!!! When I reinstall '95 everything is fine but as soon as I try to reinstall '98 the same probelm keeps cropping up. Has anyone any idea what is wrong. I have updated the drivers for all of the above devices but to no avail. Thanks for any help

There are probably resolutions for each of your problems. The proper way to resolve 
them is one issue at a time. As an example, there's a link below that is common with 
certain drive controllers after installing Win98. Modem and sound problems can be 
similar issues, or incompatible drivers. Check this link to see if it explains your 
CD rom problem.
