    WIN98 / change apperarance to default

    Hi, I have a win98 pc, would like change the apperarance in win98 default. Can't change, get a break down every time. Did delete 50% of SW, scan disk, defrag..., thought hd is to full. Its a 333mhz, 4.3GB HD, 64 RAM. How I can adjust the default apperarance in win 98, thanks a lot

    Have you gone into Control Panel and checked your Desktop Themes? Sometimes when you install Win98, you have the Option of putting in extra Desktop Themes, Sounds, Utilities, etc.

    You might also find an empty place on your Desktop display, right-click on it and select Active Desktop. You might want to unclick the View as a Webpage option.

    Just a couple of suggestions. Good Luck!

    right click desktop ( not on an icon) properites -> appearance-> schemes-> choose "windows standard" - if that doesn't work, try changing one thing at a time (like desktop color ) then restart etc...
