Hi,
I inherited a Dell inspiron 3200 D233XT laptop from my brother on which he installed an illegal copy of Win2000 which eventually completely crashed his computer. Now, when i try to reinstall Win 98, I can get through the setup fine but when i start up the computer, i get the following message:
a fatal exception 0E has occurred at 9928:C005177E in VXD VPICD(01) + 00001EA2
someone mentioned it might be a motherboard problem (this is the 3rd motherboard this computer has had.) do you think i will have to get a new motherboard??? any other ideas on how i can get this to work???? Thanks!!!
