Hi Sasa,
I just had a similiar problem to you. Spent half the night trying to install
Windows and was getting the blue screen all the time. Reloaded the Windows
98 CD I don't know how many times. Eventually I cleaned the CD removing a
couple of specks of dirt and everything loaded from that point on.
There appears that when Win4Lin copies the CAB files it does not verify that
they were sucessfully copied.
THe only suggestion I can make is to check the CDrom for any scratches and
dirt. It may also pay to try another CDrom drive ( if you can get your hands
on one) as there maybe problems between the drive and the CDrom.
Regards,
Graham Smith
