I have an AMD3000 machine. Win98SE loads smoothly in the computer, but
when I try to run Win98SE, the computer starts properly and after a while
the monitor gets no signal from the computer. The computer refuse to work and remain silent. Even after formatting the C drive, the problem remain same. But surprisingly WinXP has no problem in D drive. How it can be repaired? Please inform.

Your mobo is incompatible with Windows 98.
