  1. Rightclick the help and support service and select Start.
  2. Too bloated. Significantly more than XP.
  3. Same thought here...
  4. Just delete its files.
  5. Not to mention the main executable is 192Kb and requires another Mb or so of "runtimes"... also written in VB... I'm very discouraged from trying it now. This is one I like: http://programmerstools.org/node/276 23Kb executable, patcher itself is ~5Kb.
  6. for %a in ( name* ) do rd %a Surprising how many ways there are to create a 0-byte file. This is the recommended solution: type nul>test.txt
  7. LLXX

    dos resolution

    Standard 80x25 16-color text mode is 640x400. Mode 7 (80x25 mono, "hi-res") is 720x400.
  8. "pmwin3.zip" - not really an official release... it was just on the OS disk I got the other versions from. I don't know about that, I just know it exists because I have the original disks, dated 1985-11-15 05:43.Edit: According to several sources, of which one says "Windows 1.0 was out for only about two weeks before Microsoft released version 1.01, in order to fix several bugs." so I do have some rather rare software I can prove all the versions exist, since I have the files for them on a CD (as well as original floppies for some of them).
  9. Read more about FTP protocol, you will find LS command.
  10. My brain
  11. @above: That page just says "this page requires Javascript to display properly" There are so many of these out there... everyone has his/her favorite. Take a look at http://programmerstools.org/taxonomy/term/54 and http://programmerstools.org/taxonomy/term/53 ...those are probably ~1% of all the patchers that have ever been written. Even though some of them are called "crack generators", they can also be used for other, legal purposes as well.
  12. I've always just pulled it out after making sure there were no open files on it... Make sure it's set to REMOVABLE in the device properties, or you MAY experience filesystem corruption since writes are cached for non-removable drives. The generic driver I'm using does not show any icon in the system tray. (I believe it is based on the original UMSS from Micro$oft).
  13. You're referring to the 4GB filesize limit? That's not a bug, that's a feature FAT32 filesystem uses 32-bit values for filesize, hence the limit.
  14. The XP needs to be reinstalled yearly, but my 98se has been installed since... 11th June 2001 08:12:50 How to determine when your Windows was last installed: http://www.forensicexams.org/component/opt...art,0/limit,15/
  15. Disable DEP, see if that helps.
  16. Windows 1.01 Windows 1.02 Windows 1.03 Windows 1.04 Windows 2.03 <- my favorite pre-3.x Windows Windows 386 (2.1) Windows For Workgroups 3.1 Windows For Workgroups 3.11 Mini-Windows 3.2 I collect OSs... I have ALL of the above and more
  17. but maybe you should consider a more widely regarded language such as C/C++. C# was created by M$, and currently not used much elsewhere.I personally stay far away from anything .NET, Java, or similar.
  18. I also noticed the following line: Maybe M$ has the same template for system requirements, and someone forgot to remove the video portion.
  19. A single 400Gb drive is cheaper than 3 120s and offers an extra 40Gb BTW... Though your chipset drivers will have to offer LBA-48 support for 98se to be able to access over 128Gb of them.
  20. WTF? It's my hardware, I paid for it!I think a mass migration to Linux, or mass cracking, will probably take place if M$ started shutting down their users's computers. They simply don't have the permission to do so.
  21. Turbo C 2.01 is a free download from the Borland site... Run the following command from its directory: tcc filename.c
  22. Just extract original gdi32.dll from your Windows CD and put it in the system directory while in DOS mode. File is in WIN98_30.CAB
  23. NTFS is not recommended for use on drives that use Flash memory, as the number of writes it does is far higher than a standard FAT filesystem. It'll work, but don't expect it to last long.
  24. Just disable the network adapter, it has the same effect.
  25. @above: I don't think it's related to this. According to a quick Google, the above are from Yahoo Massager.
