Yes I have. But I didn't find exact answer to these 2 questions.

You have different means of achieving the same thing. I never said there weren't special tools for this purpose.

Only with subpixel rendering enabled. With normal anti-alias they look blurrend and illegible.

To be exact I must say that of course it is obvious that you can't copy Windows files while Windows itself is running. A boot disk with another operating system is necessary. This is the same as "Active" in FDisk, right? Did the program copy Long File Names?

This is incorrect. I have copied WinXP, Win2k and Win98 on several occasions. Win98 bootsector can be rewritten with commands mentioned above. WinNT bootsector can be written by 2k/XP installer. After the sector has been written, just delete the newly installed files and proceed with the copying.

Maybe this will display the data one screen at a time?

Those two problems are not connected. If you have 160 GB hard disk, you should attempt to use it all. This is proabaly not it, but didn't the new drive have letter D: at the time you tried to use SYS? Also, is the primary partition on new harddisk set Active? I'd use a boot CD with Norton Partition Magic, but that's darned illegal.

I don't need webhosting. Some small web projects will be provided from my own computer(s). A proper domain instead or example.sytes.net is also needed for running a mail server. Some recipients reject my mail as spam, because they can't find rDNS entries. Most of all I want to understand how DNS operates.

I want to register a domain name and there are a couple of things I do not understand. One can register second level domain names on the Internet, such as example.org, for a small fee. Upon registration you should supply addresses of nameservers. Can any publicly accessible host become a nameserver, or they should be registered with ICANN? What do people usually use as nameservers? Let's say that my example.org is pointing to 1.2.3.4. Now I want to create a third level domain, ftp.example.com, pointing to 1.2.3.5. Where do I put the "ftp" in? Does this action require access to the nameservers, or another (paid) registration is necessary?

You should fix this problem first. If your BIOS supports 48-bit LBA, apply the Enable48BitLBA Windows 98 update to access the whole disk. If 48-bit LBA is not supported, partition your new disk with logical disk(s) of total length less than 127 GB and forget about the extra space. Search the forum, this problem is common. The most easy way to SYS C: would be using a Win98 startup diskette, which can be created on a working Win98 system.

Has anybody seen a modern LCD display with advanced scaling options?

When I had nVidia 6200 the computer also would not shut down. Problem disappeared after upgrading to ATi Radeon. Good power supplies have the magic button!

The ones I've come across can be switched either by tapping Control two times, or selecting host number by pressing ScrlLock-ScrlLock-#.

I recently installed a D-Link 4-port KVM switch. Works flawlessy. Previously I had a no-name switch which degraded video quality (some said because of unmatched impedance between the switch and cables). You probably can connect your mouse using a USB-to-PS/2 adapter, which you can purchase together with some cheap mouse. I would not bother switching audio with KVM (probably will result in poor quality). Just connect the secondary PC's soundcard to your main multimedia PC's line input and you're all set.

The user can choose not to visit the website. Typically websites have extremely poor quality video and audio, so that is not really a loss. As noted abone, unfortunately there remains some content exclusively in proprietary formats (pre-MPEG4 QuickTime, RealMedia, Windows Media, Indeo). In some cases I've chosen to transcode some of these files. The best we can do now is not make more of such content.

You are lacking memory, or have too many terminate-and-stay-resident tools loaded (antiviruses, messaging servents, ...). Make sure you quit all programs before defragging. If you have enough memory (> 255 Megs) and think you have terminated all applications, but still have the problem, maybe FILEMON by SysInternals will reveal the process which is accessing your disks.

Nope. WM is the same as Real – proprietary formats for which small self-contained decoders do not exist.

I can't use write caching on one of my computers having VT6410 controller and running Lite WinXP SP1 (big winlogon / administrator). I always thought its because of the RAID controller, but I'm not sure now.

Coming from Windows 98 world I always use administrator. I recently installed a few computers with System but so far discovered no benefits of it.

I guess X1050 should work as it's the same RV370. ATI has made a mess with the model names (different for PCI-E and AGP, RV370 released several times under different names).

There was multi monitor support in Win98 era. I suppose it is possible to have 2 video adapters. But I have not built such a system and I think not all models would want to work in pair.

Let's not forget the X-versions (X550, X600). Performance of those are adequate for most 3D tasks (except latest games of course). Doesn't R420 work (X700, X800)? It has been mentioned inside the INF.

Where did you find those cards on PCI bus?

So you actually read it? Apparently "USB printing support" from M$ can no longer be distributed too. So what do we do? Stop printing...

I believe AVISynth can do that using StackHorizontal(). But it has a steep learning curve, as you must put all your edits into a text script. Basically you write the 'program' in Notepad and use your media player to preview the result when needed.
