Hello to all.
This is my first post, I hope IÂ’m posting my questions in the correct forum.
1) What are the symptoms of a bad PC battery?
2) I have an old Gateway 233 that I’m setting up for my kids to use. I reformatted the HD and reinstalled Windows 98 2nd edition. The PC started up just fine and seemed to work as expected. I restarted the PC a couple of times and everything still worked as expected. I turned on the PC this morning and it goes to a “Microsoft Registry Checker” screen, “Repairing C:\windows\system.dat”, then “Unable to fix……” then a blank screen. I turned it off, then back on and I get the “Normal, Safe Mode etc screen. What the heck is going on?? Please help this novice fix this thing! LOL!
Thanks!
Bryan
