i work for a company that has many computers and amazingly in the past 2 days 5 or 6 computers all with 98 se on them went down. i turn on the pc and it boots fine till it gets to the desktop. the mouse flashes on then BLUE SCREEN. this will happen in both normal and safe mode. it doenst have any .vxd errors or nething like that so i dont think its a driver problem. and the error is different in normal mode and safe mode.
thank you very much for any help u can give me

If you are getting error messages, what are they?

First thought, without knowing more specifics, is virus or worm. Pull a HDD from affected PC, connect it to another PC with updated anti-virus software, and run a virus scan.
