    I use 98lite with SP3 and have no issues. Using Win95 shell etc... will break most of the software. I added it a while back but removed it because of breakage. You will get lots of errors.

    If you plan to run Win 98/SE as long as possible, I suggest you double up on the hardware. I did this with my Dell C610. I have 2 of the exact same computers. When one fails due to hardware, I have a backup and just swap drives. I have not got Windows 9x running in VMs like I want to. Once I move all of my laptops to 64bit I will focus more on tweaking it. Development for Win9x is far behind, we have a few people who's helping, but when they have left the scene we'll be sol.

    I never had a problem with RegClean either, the reason I added it to the SP years ago. Its very lightweight and robust.

    Man... You have stirred up some controversy with this reference. Thank you, ol' great one!!!!! I will be debating this over the holidays. Happy Holidays to everyone. P.S We are already fighting. Thanks a lot. LOL

    When 64bit becomes the norm, Windows 9x will have to use Virtual Box/Machines or stock up on older hardware. I totally agree with your post. Some things we'll never get to experience using Win9x. When newer browsers requires a dual core system minimum, we have already lost the fight before the war have begun. Running new software on older hardware does one no good if the software needs a high-powered machine, when it requires 64bit architect, USB 3 etc..

    Pretty much SP or AP and 98SE2ME is the way to go.
  7. PROBLEMCHYLD
    I have downloaded as well as uploaded SP3 to test the integrity of the pack which is 119 mb. No issues on my end.
  8. PROBLEMCHYLD
    I have not tested the drivers on Win9x/ME. It works fine on my old dell latitude C600 with Windows 98 SE /SP3/98SE2ME.

    This is the one I use and it works great. Never had any problems. https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-USB-SATA-Adapter-USB2SATAIDE/dp/B000VS4HDM

    These are the latest for Win 98 SE, not sure if they'll work on Win 95. Give it a shot and report back. Thanks https://www.techtalk.cc/viewtopic.php?f=1047&t=390&start=67

    So the Broadcom drivers works for you in WinME but not Win98 SE?
  12. PROBLEMCHYLD
    Yes, I agree with DougB 98SE2ME + U98SESP3 are an ultimate combination. If someone is willing to patch the english files for their native language, I would help them build a SP. You wouldn't have to patch every file either, which is a good thing.
  13. PROBLEMCHYLD
    You know better than that.... LoL .... You are going to start a war for being politically correct. Never really got the chance to play with Vista but have heard many compare it to Windows ME. WinME did have some nice features that was lacking in Win98/SE.

    Government always trying to control and dictate the lives of the human race. Just like we vote them in, let's vote them out.

    I agree with Tommy, haven't seen nothing original on the net in a long time. I'm tempted to leave the computer world altogether. Stuff gets boring after while.

      Indeed.  I used to be totally amped up and excited to even upgrade a piece of software.  Or look on the market and try everything.  Or code.  Or play the newest game.  You get it.  It's all just gotten so boring it's unreal.  Of course, I haven't found anything fruitful to do with all of it (employment, can't even find work in anything I can do or general interest - get exceedingly little interest in anything I've shared or offered to do), so I've drifted to other interests and drifted off this site for most part (I still read every once in a great while).  Was good while it lasted, but not sure I can rekindle any kind of interest in it at all outside of regular daily use consistent with my other interests and the occasional classic game.

      I'm starting to watch more tv (classic shows) Seinfeld, Good times, Frasier etc... Netflix are starting to add some good content. I'm losing my passion for technology. My neighbor gave me a 50 inch smart tv because he didn't want to deal with it. I have to use a tablet or phone to control it. It nice but when my internet is down it's useless.

      I used to look forward to Win9x/WinXp updates patches, tweaks etc... Now its like....... who cares? We lost a lot of good people though. I now spend most of my time on the Dark Web reading interesting stuff. Nothing is govern nor are we doing anthing illegal. You do have a lot more freedom when you go underground. I just made a video tutorial on how to configure i2p and tor on linux. But the video applies to Windows as well. I2P is really cool.

  16. PROBLEMCHYLD
    Do you plan to continue updating for Win9x?
  17. PROBLEMCHYLD
    Some of you guys I would like to keep in-touch with. I can be reached here https://www.techtalk.cc/index.php You don't need to register or anything, just shoot me a PM and let me know who you are. Thanks. We need to archive every page on here in the wayback machine. So much will be lost.....

    It should work for all games if properly installed. You need to install DX9, the USB pack in the SP or NUSB and remove all USB drivers in safe mode and let them re-detect.
  19. PROBLEMCHYLD
    I have qemu and its a little more complicated than VirtualBox. Technically, the games I play are Spades, Freecell etc..... Those games come in handy when I'm taking a 2 hr flight. I haven't got everything setup the way I want, but things are coming along nicely. I will be triple booting Win XP, Win 7 SP1 and Linux Slackware with a VM of Win98 SE on all of them.
  20. PROBLEMCHYLD
    I use Win9x for older software purposes, nostalgia and networking. Don't need a newer browser on the machine because I run Slackware Linux for that. My windows 98 SE machine did everything I needed it to do. Outlook Express, movies, music, games ,Remote Desktop to my WinXP Pro etc.... My next project is getting Win9x running in VMs. Working flawlessly as possible, its a hell of a task. Once all the older hardware becomes obsolete, we are not going to have much of a choice but to use VMs. That's why I'm getting a head start now. After Win 7, I will never upgrade to another Windows unless for monetary reasons. I'm done with the new Windows.

    I have been preaching this for a long time. Some people think when you click, it just installs a bunch of my personal tools etc... 99% of the tools/options are MICROSOFT. I tried my best to keep 3rd party apps out, I even removed a bunch. Its only a couple in there, but other than that its all MICROSOFT. I gave people the option to choose what they wanted and some still complained. The Linux community isn't any better. But thank you for noticing, I believe you are the first to point it out. After 6 years, its still going strong and only had a few issues with a handful of users. Its safe to say its stable.
  22. PROBLEMCHYLD
    In case the user(s) are using other outdated options. Why do you even care if he/she updates or not?
  23. PROBLEMCHYLD
    You need to update to the latest version. 3.57 Nothing major.
  24. PROBLEMCHYLD
    I'm still here, lurking in the shadows.
  25. PROBLEMCHYLD
    Nothing is checked by default. You get to choose what to install. Its 42 options and none are checked.
