They're still around, almost all of them [i'm 1 of them , BTW].And Win [espec. 98 SE] is very active. All updates you ever wanted are here: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm Have fun. HTH

Thanks for being so kind. I'm glad you found 98SE2ME useful. I have not tested glaurung's slistreamer [yet], maybe I'll do that 1 sunny day, and if I do, I'll post results here. The problem is that 98SE2ME is not based on M$'s "standard" iexpress installer, but a mixed collection of BAT + INF files, which runs 1 from within another, and also depends on rebooting 1's computer in order to complete the install of most options. Therefore I have no idea how that might fit into glaurung's slipstreamer. This list: http://www.mdgx.com/98-5.htm#FME is always [as often as I can keep up updating it] up to date. Best wishes. HTH

Please download SCR579X.EXE again, and try it one more time on your PC, it might work now [710 KB]:http://www.mdgx.com/files/SCR579X.EXE Thanks. I have never seen any errors with either MSE 5.6 or 5.7, but my system is not standard, "out-of-the-box" anymore. HTH

Yes.I use an AWE64 Gold ISA Sound Blaster card which works perfect in native MS-DOS and under DOS sessions/boxes [within Windows]. The only things I need are these AUTOEXEC.BAT lines [+ these AWE64 tools]: None of these drivers/TSRs occupy any memory, they just initialize the audio card and then quit.I use an Audigy 2 Platinum for Windows [98 SE]. FYI: How to use Audigy 2 in native MS-DOS: Unofficial Sound Blaster Audigy2 series audio cards native MS-DOS mode Patch for MS-DOS 6/7/8 + Windows 95/98/ME: http://mpxplay.sourceforge.net/#loclinks Direct download [2.29 MB, free]: http://www.mbudde.de/mp3player/files/emu10dos.zip TIP: 1. Disable AWE64 Windows drivers from installing or detecting your AWE64/AWE32/SB16 sound card completely by deleting this file: %windir%\INF\SB16AWE.INF in case you are using another sound card for Windows [like I do]. 2. Also, if not using any ISA devices, or if not using them in Windows [like I do], you can replace the ISAPNP.VXD file with a 0 bytes file with the same name. ISAPNP.VXD located in %windir%\SYSTEM . Reboot after this replacing this file. HTH

Guys, Good news... Fixed *all* problems with both SCR569X.EXE [unofficial MSE 5.6] + SCR579X.EXE [unofficial MSE 5.7]. Everything works now 100%. Please re-install the one you like. No more errors that I'm aware of. I personally recommend MSE 5.7, because some web sites are moving on to support exclusively MSE 5.7 [talk about universal internet standards ], which is installed by Windows Vi$ta. - Unofficial MSE 5.7 5.7.0.16535 for Windows 98/98 SP1/98 SE/ME [710 KB]: http://www.mdgx.com/files/SCR579X.EXE - Unofficial MSE 5.6 5.6.0.8832 for Windows 98/98 SP1/98 SE/ME [675 KB]: http://www.mdgx.com/files/SCR569X.EXE Uninstall/restore function not necessary anymore, everything works now as expected.

Guys, I have removed completely the uninstall/backup/restore feature from all MSE 5.6 + MSE 5.7 installers, that is what was causing the "mess". It simply didn't work. Now you can install either MSE 5.6 or MSE 5.7, and if one doesn't work, install the other over. That's it. - Unofficial MSE 5.7 5.7.0.16535 for Windows 98/98 SP1/98 SE/ME [710 KB]: http://www.mdgx.com/files/SCR579X.EXE - Unofficial MSE 5.6 5.6.0.8832 for Windows 98/98 SP1/98 SE/ME [675 KB]: http://www.mdgx.com/files/SCR569X.EXE I'm aware of problems with MSE 5.7, but I could not reproduce any on my computer [Win98 SE English + all updates]. The "Program Files" detection HTA script [PFFL.HTA from PFFL.ZIP] works ok on my PC with MSE 5.7 installed. Until someone can post here what is wrong with MSE 5.7 and how to fix it, MSE 5.7 is in experimental stage. This is clearly stated whenever some1 installs MSE 5.7 = the small text file you see right before install starts. __________________________________________ Eidenk: This happens only if using WinME: WININIT.LOG and these [backup] folders + same files installed by the unofficial exe installer must be deleted [if they exist] whenever you install any unofficial WinME update, otherwise WinME System Restore (SR) will not allow the install: %windir%\WININIT.LOG = file %windir%\SYSBCKUP = file(s) %windir%\DLLCACHE = file(s) %windir%\SFP\ARCHIVE = file(s) C:\_RESTORE\TEMP = folder If you have a better solution, please let me know. Until some1 finds a better solution, all unofficial WinME patches/fixes/updates will be built like this, otherwise they cannot install if SR is enabled. You can also do this manually, steps by step, before installing an unofficial update: Disable + then reenable SR: 1. If using Windows ME you MUST disable System Restore: open Control Panel -> System -> Performance tab -> File System -> Troubleshooting area -> check the "Disable System Restore" box -> click OK -> reboot. 2. Download + install CoolKill [797 KB, freeware]: http://www.prowebsitemanagement.com/downloads/coolkill.zip 3. Run COOLKILL.EXE -> right-click on the CoolKill icon in Taskbar Tray -> highlight STMGR.EXE -> left-click on it to terminate this process. 4. Run a *modified* Windows ME exe installer without those INF directives, so those files/dirs won't be deleted during install [eventually PM me and I'll compile a custom one for you, if you wish] -> reboot. 5. To reenable System Restore: open Control Panel -> System -> Performance tab -> File System -> Troubleshooting area -> uncheck the "Disable System Restore" box -> click OK -> reboot. HTH
