Hello people,
I guess i got carried away with my windows exploration, and i failed to note what the original confromations were before toggling and meddling with my Device manager in WIIN98SE, all i'm left with is no cd-rom,("the system cannot readmy cd-rom") faulty "other devices notice" "faulty adapter resoultion" now i can't even change the screen area beyond 16 colors.
Somebody help.

Hi ..
I belive the best way to solve this isuue is to reinstall windows 98 .. Insert win98se CD and boot from CD (you might need to configure the BIOS to boot from CD first instead of HD) .. install windows in exact same folder you have it now .. BUT FIRST BACKUP ALL YOU DOC. AND EXCEL FILES TO DIFFERENT FOLDERS SPECIALY MY DOCUMENTS .. THE NEW WINDOWS WILL CREATE NEW MY DOCUMENT FOLDER .. I'm not sure about your programs .. you might need to reinstall it back
