Plus! 98: Assertion Failure While Copying Files to Hard Disk
This article was previously published under Q189846
When you attempt to install Plus! 98, you may receive an assertion failure
dialog box while files are being copied to your hard disk.
- If you click Yes, you receive the following message:
This program has performed an illegal operation and will be
shut down.
Setup caused an exception 03H in module Kernel32.dll.
- If you click No, you receive the following message:
An error occurred while Setup was copying files. Your Setup
location may be corrupt or missing files. Microsoft Plus! 98 was
not fully installed.
This behavior can occur if the Microsoft Windows swap file is too small.
To resolve this issue, increase the size of the Windows swap file. To do
this, follow these steps:
- Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
- Double-click System.
- On the Performance tab, click Virtual Memory.
- Click "Let Windows manage my virtual memory settings. (Recommended)."
- Click OK, and then click Close.
- When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Yes.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Plus! 98 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
