When I start my computer in Windows 98 I get the Windows help screen. I have looked at the registry, my system files, the startup menus and files and can't seem to find this or get rid of it. Any suggestions.

1. Use selective startup in msconfig to disable startup items one at a time to determine which one is causing help to open up.

2. Check device manager for errors.

3. Perform a logged boot, and search through the log file to see what happensjust before the help screen comes up.

That's an odd one. Maybe your F1 key is sticking.
Try another keyboard and see if it still happens.
Good luck.
