    Do you have the Win98SE CD? If so, then extract the Explorer.exe file from WIN98_45.CAB onto a floppy. Next, since you don't appear to have a Win98SE boot disk, go to www.bootdisk.com & download an image. Make the disk & boot your computer with it. Go to the C:\Windows folder & delete the Explorer.exe file. Now replace it with the one from the floppy. Reboot & see if it helps.

    Can you boot in safemode ? (If so try to scan your machine for spy-/ad-/mal-ware and virus)
