Hi guys

AMD K6-2-400/128 Mb RAM/MAXI Pheonix AGP Video Card 16MB Mem and 128 bit processor.

When my win 95 is loading i get this error.
While initializing IOS: Windows protection error. What is a windows protection error?
Sometimes(rarely)it will load windows fine, in normal mode.
Also what is the best book or resource for building and upgrading your own PC's?.
All advice is appreciated.

Thanx Z.T.

Thanx a lot. You guys are really F#%$& cool.
The patch worked. Ended three days of hair pulling coffee induced obsession. Maybe i'll sleep tonight.

Zane,

With the system that you have .. I am surprised that you have not done that already ... But remember to do a Clean Install of Windozze 98 ...
