My pc has been acting up on me for some time now:
At start up, if I delay entering the password, I get an "illegal operation, ending program" message. I do get to the desktop however, and I can use the machine. When shutting down, one out of at least four things happen. 1 It shut down properly (not often) 2 It freezes at the "windows is shutting down" screen 3 That screen never appears, instead the screen goes black-with-a-cursor-blinking. Freezes 4 Blue screen and error, ctr-alt-del doesn't do anything. Any tip for a computer idiot which doesn't involve re-installing windows?

I know windows 98 has issues with shutting down. The issue was addressed on the Microsoft site which I can't be stuffed looking in! Its like a jungle.

When I had Win98 I fixed this kind of problems formatting the main partition. Works like a charm. I had all data and games in another partition.

I'd go more after the program that's critically cancelled at the start up. Maybe there's the solution?

Great responds guys! I forgot one thing: At '3' the task manager shows rundll32 as the only running task. When I shut it down, I'm told it has stopped responding.
1 It is in the right folder 2 It is the right size When I shut down the rundll, it A) remains at '3' or B) Shut down correctly. This sometimes (not often) happened before I got the Internet.
