SYMPTOMS
========

Microsoft Expedia Streets 98

RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, quit all unnecessary programs that are running before you
attempt to reinstall Expedia Streets. To do so, use the following steps:
1. Restart the computer at a command prompt. To do so, follow the steps in the
appropriate section below:
Microsoft Windows 95
--------------------
Restart your computer. When you see the "Starting Windows 95" message, press
the F8 key, and then choose Command Prompt Only from the Startup menu.
Microsoft Windows 98
--------------------
Restart your computer, press and hold down the CTRL key after your computer
completes the Power On Self Test (POST), and then choose Command Prompt Only
from the Startup menu.
2. Start Windows by typing "win" (without the quotation marks) and holding down
the SHIFT key for the duration of Windows startup. This prevents any programs
from being loaded automatically when Windows starts.
3. Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to open the Close Program dialog box.
4. Quit all programs except Explorer and Systray (which are parts of Windows).
To quit a program, click the program, and then click End Task.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until all unnecessary programs are no longer running.
6. Disable any anti-virus or disk tool programs installed on the computer. For
information about how to disable these programs, see the printed or online
documentation for the program.
After you complete these steps, you should be able to reinstall Expedia Streets
without any further problems.
