You need to check your computer with your emergency antivirus diskettes you
hopefully made when you installed your antivirus software. Once your sure
your system is clean you will need to disable the antivirus program to
disable it.Normally when you install an operating system or upgrade on, you
need to disable any antivirus software. Then you should be able to upgrade
or reinstall WIN98 on it. Please see previous posts about the "suwin" error
in the "nospin" archives. Hope this helps!!

Subject: [PCBUILD] virus or no virus,
Hi Friends
Whenever I try to install a printer driver to my HP 820 cxi, I get the
error message, " Not enough Disk Space" . I took my printer to my second
computer, the driver was installed in the first attempt and it started
printing.
I took the other printer, LexMark and attached it to this( problem )
machine, again the same problem. Some thing wrong with my files on my C
drive ? I reinstalled win98 SE on it, now the machine even does nor
recognize both printers as new hardaware. It used to pick up the printers
at least before.
There is atleast 5 GB free space on my c,d,E, F drives, with 128 mb RAM,
it is P ll 450 running win 98
I hv two HDs, the 2nd one is partitioned into D,E, and F. it is 26 GB
I also checked my Drives in Device Manager, they are not checked as
removables
But while I was reinstalling win98, I got an error message from Norton,
" Virus -0 like activity . The application C:\winsto.400\suwin.exe is
attempting to write to master boot record of C: ...."
Is it any indication of a virus in the boot sector or something ?
I often receive the notorious virus message" snow white...dwarfs or
something " which I immediately delete.
Any help in this regard will be very much appreciated.
