win98 desktop loads then freezes after installing redhat linux7.0

OK I installed Redhat Linux 7.0 the workstation on my hard drive #2 with its own partition. I already had win98se installed on my hard drive #1 every thing went fine I run linux by clicking on the linux after my computer boots up. So running linux is no problem! Well the problem starts when I try to boot into windows. Here is the details after I click on DOS in the beginning of the booting process windows starts to load with no problem I logon(well Tweak logs me in) and then my wallpaper loads and all my programs in the system tray loads find. Now comes the problem after this the desktop freezes up I can still move the mouse and see the arrow moving about the desktop, but I can't click on any of my programs and open any thing. All I see is the desktop and all the icons and can not do anything. So I booted into safe mode and stopped a few things from loading when windows the things I stopped are Zonealarm and Norton Imaging of all my hard drives. Then I booted again and still my desktop freezes after awhile.

How can I solve this problem? Do you know if Linux is causing this problem in win98? Or does win98 worry that another OS is taking over? <--- (just a guess) Can any one help me on this.

Thanks in advance!
