"...what exactly happened to this one?"
Well....
98 crashed due to something. Until the crash obviously worked.
Dos (and dos-part of win2k install) works.
My guess, simple one, is that we are talking about quite old equipment not compliant with win2k.
What happens if you boot DOS from a floppy and then reinstall win98? If it still doesn't work it's the mobo of course.
my small coins,
