CooledComputer Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 how many of you guys still use windows 98, and still plan to into the new year?
CooledComputer Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 cool!it hard to beleive that is gonna be 10 years old isn't it?
herbalist Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 98 is still my OS of choice. I'm going to keep using it as long as it's able to do what I need. Thanks to sites like this one, 98 is more stable and functional than it's ever been. Rick
Atmosphere XG Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I have Windows 98 on separate hard drive. Whenever I feel nostalgic, I swap hard drives on my Internet PC and use it.
dencorso Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) cool!it hard to beleive that is gonna be 10 years old isn't it?Sure. But it's really alive and kicking. I tend to 5 separate Win 98SE machines, besides my own.And I bet many, if not most, of the people here in this forum have/know of/tend to more than one 9x/ME machine each.Win 9x rules!!!

submix8c Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) Win98 - 10yo (dates 5-98?)Win98SE - 9yo (dates 4-99?)(from my failing memory) Edited January 1, 2008 by submix8c
CooledComputer Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 so 98se was realeased in 1999? i didn't know thatwindows 9x does rule. it really does
Fredledingue Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 As long as my MoBo and Graphic card stay alive, I'll keep w98se running on them.The MoBo, the Graphic card and the case are the only pieces that remain from the computer I bought 5 years ago.Happy new w98 year!
Lime Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 This computer is my best friend. I got this computer as a Christmas present in the 1999. If it need a new part, I will buy replacement part to fix it up. During the 2007, I brought two 128 ram to upgrade the ram in my computer.
CooledComputer Posted January 2, 2008 Author Posted January 2, 2008 IMO, i think that the support here is better than anything microsoft could give
j7n Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 As long as the motherboard is completely supported (up to i915 inclusive) I will install win98SE on every computer I build. Video and audio drivers don't count.
kaapo Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Still running 3 sets of 98Se in my system. 1 kids, 1 for wife, 1 for me. All in they own primary partition (system commander). Looks like i can add the other 1g ram and use bigger disks also, so i can still keep my w2k licences + xp pro in self collecting dust.
