My win98 machine has jammed in restart mode

Can you please clarify your question a little for us. When you say "jammed in restart mode" do you mean it won't reboot, that it continuously reboots, that it errors on boot, that it boots into safe mode, that it restarts every time you try to shut down, or something else....? If you'll add a comment and explain, I'll try to assist you with this.

Thanks!

I assume that your saying that when you try to shutdown your PC it restarts and you have to manually shut it off right? I encountered this and did a little research it, what I found out is that if you have a 3COM modem, the driver causes this problem. Try removing the modem driver and software, then try shutting down the PC. If it shuts down properly then you need to download or get a hold of a more updated driver for your modem. This is all providing that you do have a 3COM modem.

Good luck.
