Unable to initialise ASPI

sounds like your aspi drives didn't load, either something wrong with the drives (incorrect ones, not enough free conventional memory or maybe the are just plain missing or maybe the drive or cable is bad...)
look in config.sys to see if you have some aspi drivers trying to load. if they are not in there, you need to install them. if they are in there, startup 98 using f8 boot menu and choosing step by step startup, see if you can see what the problem is during loading of the aspi drivers. might tell you device not found or something. reseat cabling, make sure drive is turned on...
