Safe Mode Data Retrieval?

Hi



My PC will just boot up in Safe Mode



I call for to retrieve data from it so I can update the OS



I'm running Windows 98 (yes, I know, hence the upgrade)



What's the best course of performance?



If I re-instal Windows 98 I'll lose my data

Safe Mode Data Retrieval?

couple of option:



- remove the hard disk and put it surrounded by as a secondary HD, so you can install a hot OS on a fresh disk and still access the data on this one

- install window XP over the windows 98 installation, this will not delete your facts

- use the original window 98 install disk, boot from that and try a system repair



Good luck
you can backup your data from sheltered mode, backup the important files, afterwards format your PC and install the operating system again
i would create a new divider, this can be done with the xp install disk. receive xp up and running, copy over all the files you obligation from the old hedge to the new xp barrier, then use a screen program to remove the win 98 partition.

you need to install your firewall or anti-virus selectively

no assessment



if you dont know what you're doing pay someone
