When I turn on the computer I now get the Windows 98 startup menu screen everytime.

Never had this problem before.I press enter and screen disappears or it times out in 25 seconds and I am OK to go on.

How can I get rid of this screen popping up?

win 98SE system.

Click the Start button, go to Run, type in MSCONFIG and hit enter, when the box comes up, choose the Advanced button in the lower right corner, uncheck the box for the line Enable Startup Menu. The next time that you boot, you should not see the menu.

ladytech,

You're areat! How did that box get checked?

When I am in the Configure Systems Utility screen,all the boxes are checked on the Config.sys,Autoexec.bat,Systems.ini,
and Win.ini screens. How do I determine what should be checked or not. Also when I try to edit and item I never get anything back.

I could make this another question to answer if you want me to.

Thanks for your nice prompt reply

techlady,

I should have added the Advanced TroubleShooting Screen has nothing checked. Is that OK?

There are a few networking protocols that require a login.

There are a couple of ways around this issue.

First, Type in a user name and NO password in the logon box. Then click OK.

If that does not work, install tweakUI (from Microsoft) and setup the automatic logon feature.
