    /R switch

    Can someone tell me the exact syntax to use using the /R switch when reinstalling Win98?

    This page has the switches available to use, none listed have a plain /r, but has /ir and a /nr

    Thanks for the link.

    I thought there was a switch I could use so that, when doing a reinstall, it would force a repair. No?

    Looks like the '/D' switch might do that...

    I would run setup from dos without any switches, it seems to do a reinstall fine that way.
