win98 registry trouble

by cchsilva . Updated 25 years, 11 months ago

As everything seemed to be OK with my win98 OEM pre-installation, the very first thing I’ve installed was the sound board drivers and restarted win.
It was when I first got the message:
“windows registry is corrupt, windows will restart and repair”. It restarts and everything seems to be OK. I don’t get the message each time I boot up (strange…), but let’s say I get it once a week since then.
I’ve tried a clean, new win installation, after formating HD, … the same message after SBoard driver install.
I’ve called Creative support and they told me to do 3 things :
1. disable power management (done)
2. disable sb emulation (done)
3. disable registry checking at start up (I thing it’s better not do this one)
I still got that message showing up sometimes.

Any help much appreciated.
