OK thats good, there were some VIA/Nvidia errors with sim ID's

Well then, First I would pull some memory, about 256meg would be a good place to start. 98 Has issues with 512 or more. Then I would boot to safe mode and use MSconfig to back everything out and start adding one setting at a time until I got the error again.

If it BS's in safe mode then its hardware most likly. Try reseating the vid card and the memory and run a VOM past the power supply.
