A question first...When you attempt to boot the computer does it "beep"?
This could be a bad BIOS flash...It could be a RAM problem...could be from overclocking and maybe the motherboard died..My recommendation would be to start by removing your current RAM sticks and replace with one stick of "known" good RAM. Just for good measure, I'd replace the CMOS battery. Then use a Windows 98 boot floppy to load to a DOS prompt onto the Win98 partition..FAT32 I assume?...and then reflash the BIOS IF it will allow you to load it that way. You'll need to have the BIOS driver files on a floppy and the flash utility also. In addition, you'll need to use a standard PS2 keyboard, not a USB version.
Hope this helps.

I have A celeron 1.7 GHz PC 128 MB RAM, using XP and Windows 98 on different partitions.
Yesterday i had just been trying to upgrade BIOS-"Award softwares"-using motherboard-"Gigabyte" cd.It asked for some .bin file from MB cd, so I searched and okayed. it then asked to restart the system so restarted...
now the real problem started, now system does not start at all. i cant even go upto bios setting prompt. it says "BIOS Checksum error" and "boot disk failure insert system disk and press enter".Inserting motherboard cd or XP cd doesn't help it as system doesnot detect cd-drive and says boot disc failure. when i insert the floppy it detects the floppy but cant boot from it, says again "disc failure pls insert system disc and press enter, and that too doesnot work.
I am screwed.... can any1 suggest any solution....
i think a few settings are missing.. but i dont have ny idea... plz help
