Hi Dick,
I've never used Win98, but here are some things that help some
computers under Win95.
Add to autoexec.bat
LOADHIGH SMARTDRV C+
(Has nothing to do with more memory, but speeds up logging).
Turn the computer completely off.
Turn the computer on, and during bootup, when "starting Windows"
appears on the screen, hit F8.
Select the option for step-by-step confirmation.
As each option appears, select NO for the ones that won't be
required for TR. Do not start Windows.
I know this is a pain in the neck, but I've seen some computers,
such as the laptop we used in Slovenia, where this is the only
way I could get it to work.
Good luck.
