Default Major Crash in W98se

Well, that did it. Just suffered through the worst crash I've ever had in W98se. For the first time, for reasons I fail to understand, I couldn't repair it from my cloned backup hard drive. Short of fdisk/format, I could not find a way to make it work.

Kludge No. 1. I installed W2000 (FAT32) in a dual boot. I now have a dual boot where it boots in W2000 first, and the non-working W98se second. I'll have to delete the entry in boot.ini to get rid of the W98se info and then delete the entire C:\windows folder(s).

I have been busy reinstalling every little thing and now am looking towards doing upgrades to my original W2000 install.

Any ideas very much appreciated. (It just took me an hour to figure out how to get my cellular data internet connection working once again.)

:-(
