Last night I reformatted the hard drive of a computer, reinstalled Windows 98, then tried to install the soundcard driver (for a Muse 5.1), which eventually seemed to work, until I tried to test it, whereupon it made the computer fall over. I've no idea why! Help!

I'm also looking for a means of obtaining MS Office (legitimately of course), for the computer in question. Any ideas anyone?

Don't mean to suggest the obvious, but you've definitely installed drivers for Windows 98? There are different drivers for your sound card for different operating systems:

Aye definitely - I did actually try some others, but they just did nothing.
