    Best way to setup a stable win98se running eviroment

    in Windows 9x Member Projects

    Posted

    Hey guys :hello:

    I have been trying to setup a stable win98se system to play old games and run some older apps on. I had great luck with autopatcher 98, but I guess that's gone now. I have also used gapes packs as well.

    At this point in time, what updates, packs, or other utilities would help me create the most stable win98se system possible, for the end user ? I am not a file modder so I am looking for "one click" type applications I can use.

    This forum has been a wealth of info in the past for me (even though I don't post much :whistle: ) Maybe there could be a sticky concerning the basic setup of windows 98 se using the best of the member contributed projects ?

    Thanks as always, and keep up the good work ! :thumbup

    In my opinion, the only way to make something stable is to modify setup.... don't know who can do it... (see here)

    Can there be Setup modification project? like 98Lite?

    98Lite is a fine example but it was shutdown by shane (reasons are obvious) but instead of creating post installation updates, patches, INF, projects, is it NOT easy to modify installation setup files? Something like nLite? that gives option to integrate different official, unofficial patches, modified INF files, drivers? etc into setup files? This method saves lots of time of an average user going thorough @#$%& "reading!!!!"

    I look at MDGx's pages at beginning then I scroll till the bottom of the page (to see how much information I've to read) then, I quit and get lost and leave the entire purpose of me being here... (which is install 98) why? :wacko: I would go crazy if I've to read so much...

    I did installations of W98 so many times but going through this, its just too much :thumbup . If guys can create unofficial SPx, they can surely create nLite-like package that installs their SPs before installations (into CABs or something)

    I saw mirror at

    Thanks :D although, I love MDGx! If these files were kept there, I would be happy :) I can't find that powerpack 5 either (found 4 though)...

    EDIT: It appears that some files are for Russian OS? hmmm :( btw, mdgx, I did send you pm long back (didn't get any replies)

    :hello: Hello there people, After years of trying and failing to install w98 on this Dell of mine, I've just decided to buy a new PC but don't know any successful combination :) (gfx. snd, Proc, ram, mobo, etc). I read the first page of this thread topic and somewhere, I read "VIA and SIS" being the nice people... however I'm pretty much new to "New stuff of 2008"

    Can anyone give me name/model of things I've to buy from outside which is 9x+XP+VIST+Hackintosh compatible??? :D

    Thanks in advance :D

    EDIT:

    I remember making W98 install 25 mb with all drivers installed and running at super speed! :( I didn't see this since AGES! I'm really missing this low energy super pc setting :( can't take it anymore after seeing vista :(

    HELP: BSODs after creating WinLite!

    in nLite

    Posted

    I'm having lots of BSODs and my gutt feeling says my Dell's OEM CD may be the reason or nLite not importing important dell settings and drivers from Original OEM OS cd!

    The other thing i realized is that nLite is NOT making us run the Setup with our unattended settings (serial, user, tweaks etc etc) if we run under following condition:

    1. Executing WINNT32.EXE from i386 folder on hard disk (through Windows)

    2. Executing WinNT.EXE from DOS

    by the way, they are ofcourse being run from the modded i386 folder!

    I hope this very important and main issues get fixed in Final of 1.3!!! I mean common! I don't have to burn the ISO image created by nLite to install OS on my hard disk!!! I will want to generally compile a winLite project, run the setup from harddisk and install Windows! ;) can't we save a little energy and our enviornment by wasting less CDs and power and a dollar by making things perfect??? :)

    The installation procedure used by Winnt32.exe and Winnt.exe should also be modded by nLite otherwise they become useless stupid error making EXE burden ;D

    I anxiously wait for the mighty knight of nLite to fix arse mine >:D
