New member here trying to salvage an old emachines t2778 pc. I'm trying to load Windows 98 from a cd-rom. It goes through everything fine until it's time for restart. Upon restart The 98 logo comes on the screen and then can't load user.exe. must reinstall windows. If I remember correctly we stopped using this pc because of viruses and wouldn't run well. I don't think it has any hardware related issues and originally had windows xp. I had a windows 98 operating system cd and was just trying to get this thing working if possible. Please bear with me as I'm barely computer literate, LOL. Thanks for any help.
