A friend was having problems booting and kept getting error vmm(12)…using Windows Millenium. While I was researching this error she reformatted her hard drive from a windows 98 startup diskette. Now she is trying to reinstall windows 98 from a CD. Here is the problem:
Windows 98 seems to install ok on her computer, but then it gives a message saying it needs to restart to complete installation. On the restart it goes to almost the end (so she says) then does the restart over again. No error message is shown.
I’m getting her info by phone so I’m not real clear on details.
What is wrong? Is there an error log to show why the restart is not completing? Is a file or driver missing?
Any help is much appreciated.
