Word refuses to save a file so that it can be closed. Any suggestions? The operating system is Win98. Finally had to delete it to get it solved.
This is a new problem and the only occurence for this particular issue on this PC.

you should go and post your question in the Technical Q&A place, and maybe get more reasonable answers, I will say that, yes, I had this problem too, and anything I did, nothing worked, unless at the end I checked the HDD for bad sectors, and yes, it had a lot. I changed the HDD, and all work as supposed to be :).

It must have been a fluke that the program would not shut. I have been through scandisk, defrags, etc and there is nothing wrong with this hard drive. It is still functioning and has not given that problem since!
I will keep in mind what you said though, thanks!
