I'm installing Windows 98. I run set up from Command Prompt, and then it goes to Scan Disk, and everything's okay. Then it goes to the Windows Registry Checker and it's goes good until it tries to repair the registry, it's stops at 32 % and will not continue...Anyone have any suggestions....

Try running scanreg from Microsoft in windows first. If you don't have windows installed already and/or you don't need any previous registry settings you could delete your old registry. That should make setup skip the registry check.
