If its a problem with 98 and it only happened during the last few
days, you can also use scanreg under dos and recover a version from
before the corruption.
ONE reason why computers with 98 should be switched off on a regular
basis as the first boot of the day that backup gets updated...
I have seen portables which didnt have backups as the machines are
never off, always in sleep mode...
