I am running a P133 Power Spec PC with windows 98 SE.  When I do a restart or a software install drives a restart the PC goes through its memory check and then I get a "Drive A error"  and the boot process freezes.  If I push the reset button I don't get this error or if I do a cold boot I don't get the error.  I tried setting the BIOS to boot from C only but that didn't help.

Anyone have any thoughts as to why this error is ocurring on restart only?

Thanks,

Bob
