Off topic: Windows 98 help

I really messed up my friend's computer. After doing a reinstall of Windows98 to try and clear up a problem (it didn't help), things are even worse.
1. When I go to display and settings, the changes that I make under color and screen area do not stay. The current desktop setting looks the same as Windows under safe mode (you know, 16 colors and HUGE icons).
2. Windows seems to run slower all of a sudden--the mouse moves slower, the start menu opens slower, etc. as if there is some serious background tasking going on.
I would really appreciate any help as my friend is already super pissed off at me and now I've only made things worse. Please send replies to sayu@jhsph.edu
THanks!
-Sean
