If windows is not starting automatically you may have to take some more
dramatic steps
edit the msdos.sys make sure it's pointing to the windows diretory
(use attrib msdos.sys -r -s -h from the root directory oposite when your
finished editing) change the bootgui line to equal 1
add it if its not there(BootGUI=1). If that doesn't work edit your
autoexec.bat to automatically start windows with: win as the last line
To keep from getting the bootmenu, change the bootmenu line to equal 0.

Except that the mbr is fine as he is getting the Win98 boot menu.
just put in a win98 boot disk and run fdisk /mbr and that will rewrite
the
maste rboot record for windows 98.
Alot easier than reinstalling windows.
