You have probably already been here but check the following, please.
1) Is your copy of Win98se an 'upgrade' or or a "FULL" installation. A Full installation requires you to 'DELETE' the current Windows directory to install.
2)Have you checked you memory to be sure you do not have a bad chip ? You can find an enduser mem checker at : http://www.geotestinc.com/products/index.asp
3) Be sure to close ALL apps when doing an upgrade/install, including any VIRUS program you may have running.
4)be sure you have at least 32 meg of memory on the board,64 is better, installs are resource hogs.
5) if all else fails try to boot from your recovery disk with CD support and run the install/upgrade from there with minimal drivers loaded.
As for the VB6 studio, if you get Win98 up and running, the VB6 install should be hassle free.

Hope this helps ........ H

oops, forgot; when you boot from the recovery disk, get to the root directory, (usually C:\), change to the windows directory ( CD Windows) then run 'SETUP.EXE', this will re-install windows. :-)

I think Error OE means that the software tried to perform an invalid instruction. I think your processor is bad. See what happens when you replace your computer to a newer model.

Formerly I observed that usually 0E error arises due to software conflict (approx 70%) or bad memory (30%). Bad CPU usually fires 0D error. In addidion to above I can recommend you to remove directories Windows and Program Files thus saving your data and repeat boot and install from CD.
