There seems to be a new bug with WIndows 98SE where almost everytime I try to reboot the system for anything the OS freezes and I have to do a hard reset via the PCEM menu. Made an entirely new machine and set it while testing stuff and it displayed the same behavior right out of the gate so it's a persistent issue and not a fluke with my main PCEM machine.
Doesn't interfere with just using it normally once it's actually booted and running but it's annoying
Had the same issue myself while recording a few dual boot tutorials. The slot 1 one works fine about 50% of the time for me though (the other 50% is the issue described above). The FIC board does it every time with a clean install.
Using the K6-2 300, FIC board, 128MB RAM, S3 VIRGE DX, AWE32, 10gb HD (as dynamic size) and Win98SE fresh installed does this every time.
edit: attached config. This machine does it every time for me when I go to 'restart'. The disk is a 4gb with dynamic size and plain Win98SE install - nothing else. Sarah, if you need the disk image file as well - let me know.
This isn't really the same bug I would think but I updated my 98se to v17 last night Today I was playing a few things Jedi knight 2 and Sub colture. Was playing for a along time like I do sometimes with no problems in past pcem's but today after update the games was locking up to where the last key pushed was stuck and no other keyboard inputs would work. Basically hard reset was only thing I could do =[ It happened two times on jk2 onces in sc over about two hours time. All my games do run a lot better. It's a great update! I have a win95 and ME os install as well and haven't seen this happen on them. Just thought I'd say something about it =p

If you have a different bug, it is a general forum etiquette to make a different thread for it.

"Windows 98SE Freezes" seemed in the ballpark to me =p

A reboot freeze typically happens for much different reasons that freezes when playing specific games.
Like anything you had to say helped!~ why don't you post a rule at the top of forums page. oh your not a admin, also etiquette has nothing to do with 98se freezes So you are in fact braking your own dumb rule and getting in the way of anybody that could be wanting to read this. I'm done with you. =p Sorry @CryptidWorks for this guy!

I wasn't trying to "bully" them. I just thought it was probably a separate issue that would be better handled in a separate thread.
Some people appreciate when others try to help them. I will remember that you are not one of them.
