ty i will do that

I would be willing to argue this one... most companies are using 2000 or XP, and we all know companies make up the majority of PCs What are you basing this one? Windows XP is more stable, that's for sure, and if you are argueing this one then you may not have installed it properly. OK, so you pay (at most) $200 for an OS that runs your PC for 5 years... you don't think that's worth it? My computer runs my life. I paid $1400 for my bed because it determines my whole day... I see my computer as the same. Connect to a domain? No Remote Desktop? No A WHOLE list of things... Buy a legal copy... You're insane. You should have a virus scanner on any Windows OS That's why Windows XP is more stable? i wasen't talking about companies i was meaning home users. you can run windows 98 very well just you need to tweak it to get a bit close to xp xp costs 500 bucks where i live and i never make more than 200 bucks a month,my bed is free,rent is not free,my pc runs my life too. i wasen't meaning that,i meant for software related not those kind of features. i already knew that,product activation is a pain and 98 doesen't have it well i've never been hit by viruses so 98 don't need it unles u get hit with viruses,the nt oses need antivirus No,XP is based on the NT kernel and 98 is based on the dos kernel,it has been out longer than xp has. sides i know of some businesses that run 98,they could run xp but whats the point if 98 is working fine for them,they don't always need the newest and greatest thing if something a bit older will do just fine.

would it be wise to install this overtop 1.6.2?

include a basic documentation for these files will you plz...hehe

and we will help u

you should run 98lite after installing the sp n all your drivers n directx i have a 333 mhz laptop and i put the sp then 98lite and it's fast 32 ram will be enuf for basic usage(check email,open some text document,play sum windows games,open 1 screensaver)it uses chubby,i need start menu editing as i do it all the time sides i need ie 6 for a few of the apps i run.

yes

what does that file do?

sis are ultra crap and no you did not sound stupid,i thought you didn't understand so i spoke in a way that i thought you would understand,gape will be including a generic usb 2.0 driver in sp 2.0

the sp 1.6.2 installs a generic usb driver

* Why I still use Windows 98/98SE over Windows XP Windows 98 Has A large User Base Meaning More People Use It Windows 98 Works On Every New System that XP Can Windows 98 Can Run Better Than XP Windows XP Is Too Expensive Windows 98 Is Cheap You Can Do Almost Everything on a 98 pc than on a xp pc Windows XP Has That Dreaded Product Activation where 98 does not have it On Windows XP you need to have a virus Scanner on it,with 98 you don't Windows 98 Has Far Less Bugs Than XP Does. System Specs Athlon 2600+(Barton), 768 RAM, NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 128 MB RAM, 120 GB Hard Drive. * Have you ever tried Windows XP or do you just hate it so much you won't? I Have To Use It Because i Cannot Have 1 Partition over 32GB And Before I Hated It For So Long,I Still at times have my doubts about xp,sides i know many ppl who have to use xp.

BUZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

usb 2.0 support would only be possible if your usb ports are usb 2.0 compliant or just goto your mobo manufacturers website and dl the usb 2.0 drivers there my 98 has usb 2.0 ports and it uses usb 2.0 drivers or maybe usb 2.0 support might be in another version of the sp.

remove ie and reinstall it

me sticking to sp1 till sp2 gets more fixed up sp2 did a random reboot and would log me in and log me out and freeze sp1 never did that

put the hd in another comp and save your data to another hd

yeah that would be helpful

micro causes problems

just wait till 2.0

or by using nero to burn it

in otherwords stick to another os like xp or so for your main os.once longhorn is officialy released then consider switching to it for your main os.

will i take longhorn?i will wait and stick to xp till longhorn becomes less buggy than it is now.
