Restart problems with Win98se

[campos562]

Here's my system specs:
250 Watt ATX power supply and large mid-case
Tyan Trinity 400 S1854 mobo (VIA 694x+596B)
Intel CuMine 667 (running at 150 fsb=750)
128 MB Crucial PC-133 (7.5 ns, 2-2-2 SDRAM (non-ECC)
Guillemot MaxiGamer Xentor 32 (TNT2 Ultra w/ manufacturer's latest driver build 6.35, and updated BIOS to build 2.05.13)
SB Live! Value w/ Liveware 3.0
D-Link DE-528 Ethernet adapter
Generic Conexant PCI 56K modem
VIA 4-in-1 4.29 and USB filter installed
DVD and CD-RW and Zip 100 (all IDE)
Maxtor 20 GB 7200 rpm disk w/ about 15 GB free
Full oem Windoze 98se w/ latest IE 5.0 updates and WMP 7
Here's the problem: When I restart, I get the "Windoze is shutting down" screen and that's it. I have to hit the reset button for it to restart. I let it sit once for half an hour and it did nothing. It shuts down fine, but it won't restart. Any suggestions? :confused:
