Yeah, I'm cross posting!

In Win98 do this - 

Open Control Panel,
System,
device manager,
system devices,
advanced power management support,
properties,
settings,
Choose force apm 1.0 mode,
Click ok.
Reboot.
Enter the Setup Utility/BIOS with F1 at next boot up and disable wakeup
on ring (one last time)

If that doesn't do it.. disconnect Wake Up on Ring cable in case.. it's
the 2pin one.
