prathapml Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 No, not true.ME is very good... and yes the 98se fans don't want to move out - so WinME has very few users.Its basically because.... win98se users should have moved on to winme, but they got stopped by the win2k prospect. Then, when finally they bought new PCs able to support win2k, WinXP was out. So WinME got bypassed completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have WinME pre-installed on my Hewlett-Packard Pavilion machine and it runs good. Though you need to install some updates AND some hotfixes that can be requested from Microsoft tech support to make WinME work right.WinME is basically Win98 TE (win98 third edition) and was designed for consumers & home users. ALL 9x versions of Windows were best suited for consumers/home users.WinNT, Win2000 on the other hand were designed for business & corporate users; Business/corporate users barely hate the 9X Windows versions because of their weak security features....and then came XP which came in Pro and Home editions.Maybe after Gape releases 2.0 SP final for Win98se, he might try to create an unofficial WinME SP. I have requested a bunch of WinME hotfixes from MS for several weeks now and have installed them on my HP computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theuuknown Posted April 15, 2005 Author Share Posted April 15, 2005 I have download almost every hot fix MS has ever resealed for ME.

soldier1st Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 or don't expect one at all,a sp for me wouldn't hurt but doubt it would make me better than it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
