I don't know if this the right group to ask my question but here
goes, I have an older machine that I use for older games that require
dos to run, I did a clean install and installed win98se, I installed
the video drivers and monitor drivers and the like, I installed
several of the games I play on the machine, however when I click on
shutdown and restart in msdos mode all I get is a blinking cursor,
this is the first time this has ever happened and I'm at a loss to
understand why, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Where did you get the Windows installation CD from? Is it OEM or from
Compaq or Dell or?
