Rhelic Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 says that my download speeds are most of the time better when using 98SE.Interesting, I'll have to test this out myself when I get a chance.I should stress test our 98 boxes on the network's 100mbit connection VS XP.

Chozo4 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 1) NTFS is much safer than FAT32 (w98 can't do NTFS) (altho I find NTFS so much slower than FAT32, I'd rather sit thru a (rare) Scandisk once in a while )Actually, I've seen several versions of them on the net but there are add-on drivers for windows98 to work with NTFS. Some of the drivers are read-only with such formats but the others are both read & write for NTFS using windows98. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
