I have seen this problem with early model Pentium motherboards, luckily
they were all Flash ROM upgradable, and an upgrade did fix the problem.

Well, I've got this problem too, but with me I think it only ever
occurs when I use the floppy disk drive sometime between starting up
and shutting down and if I don't leave the last floppy which I read in
the drive...wierd problem (=

Have you a hard drive configured as a slave on the same IDE port as a
CDROM
drive configured as master? This will cause the problem you are
experiencing.

I assume you have done a scan disk.
I assume you have gone to safe command prompt and removed all *.tmp files
that build up with incorrect shutdowns.

I would refresh the files with the Windows 95 disk. I would also refresh
the Service Pack 1 files as well.

If you still get a problem refresh the files again but say yes to replacing
the later files with the earlier ones then add the Service Pack 1 again.
You will get only one problem in that it will ask for LPT.VXD. Point it
back to the Windows\system directory for this and it will be happy. The
Service Pack will then refresh it.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Aussie Bob
