&quot;Divide overflow&quot; is equal of a number being divided by zero. Thus I would suspect that you should reformat, and then reinstall win 98. If this does not work, I would suspect a bad cd rom disk, or worse a cd rom drive calibration problem which would mean a replaement of the cd rom drive.<br />

After reading your comment about the cpu, I went back to my 'troubleshooting and Maintenance manal' and checked another source and your comment about a failure of the CPU causing a divide by zero error should be on the money.<br />

Hey folks, today I was working on a clients Micron-Win98 se. machine. After formatting his C drive, I Put in the Win98 CD in and also the start-up floppy and restarted. At the command prompt I typed setup as I have done many times. I got an interesting error (Your program caused a divide overflow error) Needless to say I could not reload his operating system. Not sure what to do. Thanks in advance
