Hello,
I am using Windows 98.
on an optiplex Dell about 10 years old.?
My computer wont act normally anymore, I have no access to the internet, and when I turn it on it only to goes to Safe Mode again every time. When I go to the shutdown screen I only get Restart and Shutdown options.
I ran a virus scan, and a anti-spyware scan, and it found nothing.
I checked my hardware but everything is working fine, I presume that obviously the problem must be at the hard drive handling all the info and stuff.
It has a certian symptons I have never seen before, like it highlights more than one item at a time anytime i click on an Icon.
I tried going into MS-DOS and selectively formatting my hard drive but i dont have even that available as an option or a command prompt.
So their is my dilemma, is their anything you guys can come up with that could possibly aid my computer before trashing it?
I honestly think the problem is of age, but im not in any financial position to replace one.
Thanks guys
