Mozilla closes while loading (win98)
 
I installed Mozilla on Windows 98 and it seems to have gone fine, but when I open it and it starts to load it closes. I tried restarted a few times, and I reinstalled it twice from different copies of the installer. It still closes. Has anyone had this problem? And any ideas on how to fix it?

Win98 you know... when something does not work you can:

1 - Reinstall win98 and try it again;

2 - Stop trying to install the program you are trying to install...

I've used Win98 and SE for a long time. Some games, specially Eletronic Arts could randomly give the very same problem you are having with Mozilla. Even deleting the game and reinstalling it again, the problem would persist. The solution is to format and install the game again. Try using a descent Windows (NT based systems rocks) or Linux. Win98 and 95 are very buggy. If you use it "as is" it works fine. When you start installing stuff, upgrading, beware, it will give you headache :)

Try running it from a DOS box, maybe it will print some errors...

The computer's basicly stuck how it is because it's cd drive doesn't work and I'm not wasting money on a new one.

It doesn't really matter since it's only one of three computers I have (the others are RH8 and XP), but I am stuck using it sometimes.

Running it from DOS didn't show any errors.
