Hi,
I am running windows 98. Today I installed explorer 5.0 over 4.0. When I did this, several strange icons popped up all over the desktop. (This has happened before and I fixed it by restoring a registry from the previous day).
Well, like an idiot, I restored yesterday's registry (before I installed explorer 5.0).
Now when I start the computer, it gives me an invalid page fault in explorer.exe. I can't get into windows at all. I have been searching the forum and tried several tips for people with that same error message. Nothing seems to work.
My question is - Have I completely messed up my windows registry and can it be fixed without having to reinstall windows 98.
Thanks in advance for any advice
