Socket 5 or 7? Either way you should be able to do a cheap cpu upgrade.

I just googled "epub sample file" and found a wealth of info that anyone researching this topic (or just following this thread) might be interest in.

For the USRobotics USR5637 56K USB FaxModem, according to http://support.usr.com/support/5637/5637-ug/install.html:

Is this correct? (please fill in the original HDD specs): System constants MB: Gigabyte Ga-990fxa-ud5 R5 Ram: 32gb of ram installed. Originally OS: Windows 8.1 x64 HDD: ??? all 32gb's were usable. First upgrade OS: Windows 10 x64 HDD: ??? all 32gb's were usable. Second upgrade OS: Windows 10 x64 SSD: 500gb ssd. 32gb/16gb usable. Downgrade OS: Windows 8.1 x64 SSD: 500gb ssd. 32gb/16gb usable. 16gb driver locked on the motherboard. Please provide more details about both the SSD and the driver that is locking 16GB.

It doesn't officially support Win10, but it definitely isn't obsolete. Win10 must surely have a compatibility mode for Win8 apps....

Game Commander 2 is configurable on a per-app basis.

ctl3d32.dll has been standardized at version 2.31.0.0 since at least 1999.

Win98 regains much speed if one disables Active Desktop and sets [386Enh] ConservativeSwapfileUsage=1 in System.ini. Also set accdate=c- in Config.sys for faster boot. IE5 can be (completely?) removed if you don't need it. Every version of Windows is larger and slower than the previous version. I recommend using the earliest that will run the applications you want to run. If you only plan to run DOS games/apps, only install DOS. If you also want Solitaire and Minesweeper, Win3.1 will boot the fastest and do the job.

Maybe as a safe host for scanning external or slaved drives? Also shared drives in a multi-boot system.... Good to know NAV 2002 is still working!

I remember using IPX for easy networking via Direct Cable Connect and/or ethernet crossover cables in the golden days of yesteryear. Does Win7 not support IPX or have Network Neighborhood? If you have webmail access on both systems: 1) Zip the files you want to transfer and attach them to a draft email and save it (to the cloud) 2) Load the draft on the target system and save the attachment(s) 3) Delete the draft or keep it as backup

If we can identify which DLL is providing the SSL3 support, we might be able to downgrade it with the one from IE5.5. Even better might be to upgrade it with an IE7 or 8 file that supports TLS.

I was unable to identify your system from the info provided, but I also googled: Mazatrol matrix nexus "compact flash" The Matrix control is said to have "replaced the floppy-disk with the more reliable USB drive." Seven ways to transfer files are itemized. The main photo shows a SanDisk 4.0GB CompactFlash card. Those didn't exist in the Win95 era. The webpage is copyright 2009. Windows 95 and FAT32 may not mix. Try a sub-2GB CF card (or repartition the 4GB card down to 2GB) and partition as FAT16. Do you have serial and network ports? You could remove the HDD and put it into another system to clone or copy files from it. How big is the HDD and how many megabytes of files are we talking about copying?

With the drive disconnected, get into Setup and make sure BIOS is not auto-detecting the ATA modes of each drive every boot. Set your other drive(s) to User/manual settings. Then reconnect the new drive and see if you can get back into setup. Try auto-detecting the drive. If it hangs, reboot and set the parameters manually. I don't think they have to be correct at this time, just valid, so pick small numbers. Hopefully upon reboot you will be able to get to a DOS prompt. Then you can use other tools such as MHDD to reset the drive.

"A while" equals seven weeks. First saw it on August 17 and saved a snapshot instead of posting immediately.

For a while now, I've been seeing this wifi AP broadcasting in my neighborhood: Type CH Signal BSSID Security SSID AP BSS 6 28% 00:d0:2d:53:1e:fc OFF NewThermostat_531EFC

System Information or Device Manager

What OS and drivers are currently on it? We need a hardware device list.

I think SystemTray and Shell Scrap DataHandler can go. If you only want to run SuperPi, install it as the shell app instead of Explorer. Then you should be able to get rid of userinit and RpcSs as well as Explorer itself. If you really, really want SuperPi to fly, find a version with a built-in 32-bit DOS extender, boot from floppy, and skip NT4 altogether.

Google and Wikipedia are completely separate issues. Unfortunately, I don't understand what either of those issues is, only that they are unrelated. On my Win98se machine, Google works in both IE5 and FF2. Wikipedia doesn't work in IE5 and just once per session in FF2.

Not cheesy at all -- I've been using and advocating (what-wifi-cards-are-compatible-with-98se, best-pci-wireless-card-for-9x) a router in client (or repeater) mode as a wifi adapter for Win9x for years. I've used several desktop routers that need AC power. A travel router that gets its power via USB is perfect for mobile use. If the NIC is also USB, a two-port USB hub might be used to create a one-USB-port complete solution -- but that might be cheesy!

SSE support would be the biggest reason to upgrade to a PIII. And if the 500MHz PIII runs at 333 (or 366) MHz, there will be plenty of headroom to try software overclocking.

Don't know about NT4.

Is the Pentium II you are replacing an overclocked Klamath (2.8v) or a Deschutes (2.0v)? Either way, a Celeron at the same speed is probably a downgrade. You must be hoping to overclock it once you get it working....

After uninstalling IE6, restore the registry you saved before installing IE6.

For Psapi, yes because the ReactOS version isn't compatible. For Uxtheme, no because the ReactOS version is compatible.
