Try this:
1. Restart Windows in Safe mode. To do so, restart your computer, press and
hold down the CTRL key after your computer completes the Power On Self Test
(POST), and then choose Safe Mode from the Startup menu.
2. Use Windows Explorer toremove the ShellIconCache file from the Windows
folder.

NOTE: You need to be able to view hidden files to see the ShellIconCache file. To view hidden files in Windows 98, click Folder Options on the View menu in Windows Explorer, click the Viewtab, click Show All Files, and then click OK.

3. Restart your computer
