Everytime the system is restarted, it automatically goes into safe mode. Doesn't give an option to start in Win98.

When ur system is first turn on after it goes through the POST (you know checking all the hardware & memeory count) start pressing "F8" & you should get a menu. One of the choices is "Normal Boot" & if thjat don't help repeat steps except choose "Last known working configuration" otherwise you may need to reload your Windows 98. I love windows 98 but its a FAT32 which needs a lot of preventative maintenance like "defrag" on a regular basis & runnig "scandisk" at least once a month.

Have you thought about upgrading to XP? Might be a good time to consider it now if you haven't already. There is a problem on your system that windows doesn't like at all, try to remember what you did just prior to this starting to happen and remove or reverse whatever it was you did.
If you did nothing does anyone else use the system?
Did they do anything?
If no-one did anything and this just started happening you might need to re-install 98, or you may very well have some sort of virus or something.

restart the computer and keep tapping F8 until you get to a screen that says boot in normal mode or safe mode pick normal mode
