i know it's off-topic, but i did several questions on several forums... they tell me what they knew... but i need more

1 - i try emm386 and himem on config.sys, but no success i have acer aspire 1690: - ATI Mobility Radeon X600 (Acer) Video Adapter 64MB's VRAM; - Intel 82801FB(M) ICH6(-M) - AC'97 Audio Controller [B2]

i have read PHILSCOMPUTERLAB.COM, but no lucky i don't have EMS activated or somethiing and less memory.. but i have 512MB's of RAM my problem is: 1 - get\actavite EMS; 2 - get more than 600KB's of memory(for use drivers and more); 3 - and maybe get the sound working, or all sounds go directly to speaker(unclued backgound music game).

found it... can i override the config.sys or the menu isn't compatible with win98?

i can't find the right files... please share the programs and the config.sys\msdos.sys\autoexec.bat

i need ask 1 thing: the MS-DOS, from the Windows98 UBCD Feb 2008, is updated for get: 1 - more RAM? 2 - play more, MS-DOS, games? 3 - MS-DOS mode('F8') sound drivers?

thank you so much for all

i mean these problem: i resolve the problem when i tryied uninstall the explorer... the program asked me if i wanted repair, and i choose repair. thanks for all Moderator: please delete the next image... i tryied delete without success(and isn't on image list)

i know that i did a question about these before, but i can't find it i have the Explorer, on Windows 98... on 'Show' menu we have 'Like a Web Page'... these option seems disabled... can i enable it?

my 'Network Neighborhood'(on Desktop) is empy... i win 100% of speed on startup... so yes, was the networks adpaters.. the networks drivers must be reinstalled, but, for now, seems great.. thanks so much for all to all

i only found 'vdhcp.386' i changed('SFC') but the problem remains

is there any program like 'Advanced system care'?

- i turn on the laptop; - i see the Windows slash screen on startup; - why, here, the boot 'stops' 1 minute(more or less) and then continues?

"Did you load SMARTDRV yourself or it was loaded by Windows? As you can see SMARTDRV uses most memory, maybe reduce the buffers a bit? " yes... speaking on autoexect.bat or config.sys, can i use an 'if' for test if is MS-DOS or Windows? is for execute these only on MS-DOS. but. to be honest, i don't know what these do... and the 'doskey.com', i don't know it too. "Do you really need localized keyboard? You can disable KEYB and free 9KB more." it's for change my keyboard layout to Portuguese(i'm Portuguese). "About VSB.COM, is it this? Which version? You should not run it with Windows, only in pure DOS. " version 2.02 i have 'Intel 82801FB(M) ICH6(-M) - AC'97 Audio Controller [B2]', but theres no drivers for MS-DOS.. so i'm trying use it. "If i remember correctly, Warcraft 2 should run fine with sound under Win9x without loading DOS sound drivers. You just have to configure it properly. " yes... but... the Spear of Destiny- Wolf3D don't execute on Windows. justo on MS-DOS, but takes some minutes. "Are you trying to get more memory in pure DOS, or in the DOS prompt in Windows?" both for execute MS-DOS games normaly... but if i can use them on DOS prompt in Windows, i will be happy "How fast is that system? Maybe Wargus or DOSBox (with D-Fend Reloaded) or ScummVM may be better alternatives." maybe too faste: CPU: 1.6GH'z RAM: 512MB's VRAM: 64MB's to be honest, why use DOSBox, if it's Win9x!?!

https://imgur.com/TLGGbFH https://imgur.com/xtwVlAL 1st error: https://imgur.com/HgKGSKC 2nd error: the Warcraf 2 freezes, on menu, on MS-DOS... but not on Windows, Prompt MS-DOS... PS: i was writing here, when i see the game playing on demo... seems that i lose the mouse(even seen the icon) and no keyboard input so what you can advice me?

some games need 560kb or a little more.. so that's the problem.. i have 636KB's on Convencional memory.. but i use some drivers... and because of that, i don't have 560KB's free what i can do more?

is for games and drivers... i didn't get lock with UMBPCI i tryied that commands, but no success i must see the MemMaker... i can't find it on Windows 98

after several changes, the autoexec.bat have an error on codepage parameter: https://imgur.com/RNt19Zw https://imgur.com/i2CqiA7 https://imgur.com/s3t24UB https://imgur.com/HI5eFNf the autoexec.bat error, i can fix it.. but my real problem is the memory on config.sys

using the config.sys, how can i get more Upper Memory Blocks - UMB, High Memory Area – HMA and Extended Memory? i knoe these commands: DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM but i get less memory that i need and some MS-DOS programs\games can't run because of these problem and i'm reading these: https://www.philscomputerlab.com/ms-dos-starter-pack.html

thank you so much for all.. i will test it... please read my last post... i need have sure if that mini card is the 'most wanted' for my laptop on Win9X? for i buy it

maybe isn't compatible with WPA codification or something. that why i'm trying buy these one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254506467561?hash=item3b41c480e9:g:S94AAOxy-WxTFCr8 from these suggestion: https://cloakedthargoid.wordpress.com/win9x-wpa2/ yes i try almost everything(except on W2K.. i must create a double boot and i don't know do it). and from ArcticFoxie: " Upon further reading on my end, WPA and WPA2 is very difficult on 98/98SE. I could probably get it to work if it were my equipment. But guiding this process online is going to be far too time-consuming given the complexity level of the articles found via a Google-search on the topic." so i prefare buy the https://www.ebay.com/itm/254506467561?hash=item3b41c480e9:g:S94AAOxy-WxTFCr8 but i need a confirmation, for have sure that i can buy it MrMateczko: you gived me a suggestion... wasn't the solution, but you tryied... and the price was low... so... that's ok... thanks anyway at least the Windows 98 is working on a Windows XP laptop hehehehe and all drivers are installed... well except the wireless... and the modem driver seems strange, even installed without a warning or something... maybe these wireless card will resolve my problem. thanks to all for all

i need ask more 1 thing: i found a universal sound driver: http://www.georgpotthast.de/dossound/ isn't free, but seems to be for my sound card... but any sound.. even if i choose the speaker... what you can tell me? is need a command instead only execute the file?

honestly i don't know do it.. but, true, is the best for test the hardware

"please, check this card with W2K. maybe card just dont work (i say about wireless part, not mPCI interface)." i must format, again..again, the laptop hehehehehe these one is the more apropriated for windows 98? https://www.ebay.com/itm/254506467561?hash=item3b41c480e9:g:S94AAOxy-WxTFCr8 it's a low price but these time i must ask what is the best for my acer and windows 98
