I've been getting a lot of BSOD's lately at startup..the OE error almost always says this "Fatal Exception OE occurred at 0147:0000663d"

First: does anyone know what that code means?
Second: can I reinstall 98SE over itself without running into same problems?

And yes I have taken the CPU back down to default speed and yes I still get BSOD's. The only thing I have done lately was upgrade the SB Live drivers...I guess I could try installing the old ones...but I don't think that is the problem because the computer ran fine for a while with the new drivers...

anyway enough..any help would be appreciated
 
ypu didn't mention if you can actually get into Windows: if so, you can just re-install, which will add any missing or corrupted files. If you can't get into Windows, and have to install in DOS, it will overwrite all of your old files and settings, just like a clean install.
 
thanks...for the info...
I can get into windows...I usually have to reboot into Safe mode...then restart and it works fine then...
