marxo Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Details... How would new resources improve speed of 95? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PROBLEMCHYLD Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 (edited) win95 shell32.dll is already faster than win98 shell32.dllbut certain programs don't work with 95shell32.dllso if you add 98 resources to 95 shell it will have speed and able to use apps that requires a newer shelljust a thought Edited July 12, 2007 by PROBLEMCHYLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marxo Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Oh... But by resources I meant graphics and stuff... What did you think to transplant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awergh Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 i thought 98lite was meant to have made something like that.a shell32.dll from 95 that was linked to the shell32.dll from 98 so that you could retain the functions of 98 even though using 98lite but ive never seen it ive only heard of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use that feature though. I'd really recommend trying this program out. The freeware version (trial version which after a while does not give you some of the advanced features) is excellent IMHO. I used sometimes to have problems with defrag, hated the active desktop feature of win98SE, and wanted permanently to get rid of Outlook Express and other M$ stuff. All these issues were resolved and/or enabled by using 98Lite. No need to reinstall win98SE if it's already installed. Just run 98Lite afterwards.Try it out from here:http://www.litepc.com/download.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awergh Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 yes 98lite works well but you do need some 95 files to get rid of ie completey, but i have to say outlook express was never compulsary, you can choose not to install it in the win98 setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
