I have just re-installed 98SE and get to the point of restart, then windows starts to instal drivers etc and then goes to a blank screen and then starts a soft reboot. I cannot get it to go in to safe mode. I have went through a comd promt and get to the msmouse.vxd and even if I load or do not load the machine goes into same blank screen soft re-boot. Really apreciate any ideas. Many Tks Bri

Is this occurring during the installation, or has this problem developed after
a completed installation?

Fresh install, or are you installing over-the-top of another?

Help us out here with some details!

JMC, This is occuring during the installation, I have done a clean installation ie fromat the disc etc and the same thing happens. I though it was a bios problem associated with the setting for the APG Video card, but been all through that. As I say when I go through the set-up step-by-step it seems to blow at the MSMOUSE.VXD point.
