 I have recently installed a Netgear router onto my Windows 98 Acer laptop. One day after, while I was so busy playing my favorite online game, this disgusting error had appeared on the computer screen saying “Windows Protection Error.

System Halted” and it required me to restart my computer. 

Of course, I didn’t think of restarting my laptop just because of the error until I realized that it already gave me an irritating situation.

I received this error message after I have installed the Windows 98 from MS-DOS “Packed File Corrupt.” In the middle of the installation process after the scandisk, the installation set-up started copying the files to the hard drive but it was blocked by the error message.

Hi there folks,

I have an Epson Perfection 3490 Photo scanner. I am running Windows 7.

This scanner used to work beautifully until I removed some other software that I no longer wanted. Sadly I cannot remember what it was. Anyway since then the scanner refuses to work.

All the other bundled items will load from the set-up disc but not the scan facility.

Whatever I try I...
