Where does it, "L", come from? Someone said somewhere that L is not a typo (or anything else) -- it's supposedly some sort of Unicode marker. *shrugs* > What is the cause of these errors?

Maybe wine just doesn't like your particular W98 user.dat -- did M$ decide to change the format of user.dat between W95/W98? As for regclean, have you tried rebuilding the registry? I believe that you (using windows regedit) export the entire registry to a .reg file, then in DOS mode, use regedit to create the registry from that reg file. I dunno if it works, but in lots of Windows' Tips and Tricks magazines, that's how they clean the registry. You do have the correct permissions on this partition, right? Linux has problems with FAT not having owners or true permssions -- if it's mounted with fstab, it becomes owned by root on my system, which might be annoying. Dunno though. > This is a win98 system.
