Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/oerg866/win98-quickinstall/issues/42

Upon a fresh install of the Windows ME image provided here (https://github.com/oerg866/win98-quickinstall/releases/download/v0.9.6/winmeqi_v0.9.6_micro_directx81.iso) checking DxDiag reports a number of Registry errors (I do not believe they are limited to simply DX, I think this is a much bigger and far-reaching problem with something). I have attached the DxDiag log below.

Not an actual problem, just a side effect of 98Lite's de-bloating, can be
ignored

Fwiw the 98 stock image should not have this issue

Even when uninstalling 98lite, the issue still persists. Is that to be expected as well?
