Windows 98SE and RAM limitations?

Donald2B

I am running a dual boot machine for some time now and I recently upgraded to 1 Gig of RAM. This didn't cause any problems for Windows 2000. Everything booted just fine and things are great. When I try to boot into windows 98SE it gives me an error that windows failed to boot please restart your computer.

Win98SE IRQ issues

TinyHeathen75

Right now I am testing Windows 98 SE on a machine that has proven to be rather problematic since I got it. The Video card and onboard LAN insist on sharing IRQs,and this leads to a problem in wich the monitor goes blank for a moment, it does this a few times and then the entire computer locks up.
