If your D: drive is a separate physical disk from the drive that Win98 is booting from, that sounds a lot like a hard drive failure. Are these all IDE drives? With the two CD drives also being inaccessible in Win98, it could be an IDE failure on the motherboard. If that's the case, though, it's curious that the Win98 partition will boot.

The last time I got a BSOD [Blue Screen Of Death] on my laptop the offending file was listed towards the middle of the blue screen. In my case it was a wireless driver so I tested the machine out with the wireless card removed & everything checked out fine then I proceeded to update my wireless drivers & haven't had a lick of trouble since. Doesn't your blue screen list an offending file?
