233MHz is needed, dont even expect 98 to run in 400 Hz system and I didnt know that Cel procy comes that low...

you need to mention the error msg. otherwise its very difficult to find the cause of the problem.

I think he means at the very beginning. but yeah devgujar there should be an error code. is that HDD clean or is there other 'stuff' on there as well.

hey ..........
gys that was the problem of my RAM, I think few components of ram were missed.

i had changed the RAM and problem got solved..........

i've installed Win XP on a rig with PIII 350 MHz 92 MB RAM and a 20 GB HDD
tho it took longer than 25 mins it is runnin fine [ya sum1 still uses it]

and d first comp I got in 98 had a PII 266 MHz with 64 MB SDRAM and a 4.3 GB HDD
installed 98 on it worked like a charm

as 4 u tellin him 233MHz is needed u shud no dat clock speeds of even 386s ver measured in MHz, ven d celeron series was not even on d distant horizon [celeron series ver introduced wit PII slot-based processors]

EDIT

may be a hardware problem.

cd might b corrupted.. or ur hardware might have screwed up... i think the installation's possible somehow... whatever minimum specs a system should have.
If not.. @least a message shoulda come.
These min specs requirements r essential primarily for some software only.. esp games... with the graphics card... not OSes... to my knowledge.
