How to Upgrade windows 98 to windows xp
This days most of the people were using Windows Xp. May be most of you sometimes faced this problem while you update your windows 98 to windows Xp. Here I would Like to share some tips of easy upgradation from Windows 98 to Windows Xp.
Most the time problem will occuer when windows detect and install the device drivers. Means computer will stop responding.
In this kind of Scenario you have to identify that which device is giving problem, But its not always easy to find the device to sove the issue.
Then here we have to do some advance level troubleshooting. To solve this issue you have to edit the BOOT.INI file.
Modify the Boot.ini file to include the /sos switch.
When we trying to troubleshoot startup problems with Windows XP (orWindows 2000/NT), in particular when the system hangs at reboot as in this scenario, we should use the "/SOS switch in the boot.ini startup file. This switch causes the names of drivers to be displayed as they load during boot.
