ok, so I think my pc is ok, but I"m not really sure.
here is what I just built:

k6-2 450mhz
some epox mobo
64meg ram
6 gig hdd
Geforce 2 mmx 32megs
win98 se

when I boot the pc, I get this error message saying that I'm missing a vnetbios.vxd file.

I can easily press any key to continue, but I would still like to get this problem fixed. Can I d/load that file somewhere?

2) In my previous post, I told you guys about this blue screen that appears EVERYTIME my pc goes to win98. You guys said it was a memory problem. I went to the bios, and disabled cpu internal cache, and external cache.

I dont know what I just did, but the blue screen went away. Can someone tell me what I just did? will it be ok to leave those 2 things disabled???

3) my win98 is extremely slow. I could swear that it takes 30 seconds for the start menu to pop up.

now is that a ram problem(considering that I only have 64megs of ram)? or should 64 megs be enough to handle win98??

 
Did you do a fresh Win98 installation? If not, it's time to backup whatever you need to keep, format and reinstall windows. I did that about every 6 months before I started running Win2k and now WinXP, and always when putting together a new system.
 
Try this, Click Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information > Tools menu > System File Checker > Extract One File From Installation Disk

The vnetbios.vxd file should be in your windows installation disc.
