Petr Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 I've one question yet :Will the software update for web folders (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;892211) be integrated on these next SP ? This update is compatible with Windows 98 SEWhy do you think that it is not included? It is here since sesp20rc1 published on February 2nd 2005.Petr
Big Monstro Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Why do you think that it is not included?I believe that that update isn't included because there aren't Fp4autl.dll and Fp4awec.dll in the cabinet files of SP.

pykor Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 My friend has a PC that I setup using my "Win98 Upgrade CD" which includes:DirectX 9.0cMDAC 2.81Win 98 SE SP 2.1a etc., etc., etc.A game the kids wanted to try out called:Sudoku by PappocomRequired files:Microsoft Windows Installer 2.0Microsoft MDAC 2.8 (if you do not already have 2.6 or better)Microsoft XML 4.0 Service Pack 2Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Runtime Service Pack 6Apparently, the only thing missing was MS XML 4.0 SP2 Was wondering if that will be included in a future release or should I add it to my own upgrade CD.The game was smart enough to not only figure out which components were needed, but download them also. Just would prefer everything be included for easy "load-and-go" especially on dial-up computers.
bristols Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 (edited) Just to let everyone here know, an MSFN member (bobthenob) has kindly rendered a couple of logos for the Unofficial Service Pack, should anyone wish to use them:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=63215&st=0If he has the time, he might provide you with your own customised version!http://www.members.aol.com/robinbrownmarti...logo/win984.pnghttp://www.members.aol.com/robinbrownmarti...logo/win983.pngThese versions are rendered in Franklin Gothic (which I believe is the correct font for the Windows logo).I asked for the particular wording on these logos. Gape, Petr or anyone else concerned, if you would like to correct or change it in any way, let me or bobthenob know (and hopefully he will have the time to make the changes).Petr, if you like the logos, I'm sure bobthenob won't mind doing a "98 Gold"/"98 Final Edition" version. Sorry for not asking for this originally. Edited December 26, 2005 by bristols

John O Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 I have the 2.0 BETA 3 service pack. I assume it would be a simple task to upgrade to this new version? I am not really a computer person, so I hope you don't mind me asking.Thanks, John
Gape Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 I have the 2.0 BETA 3 service pack. I assume it would be a simple task to upgrade to this new version? I am not really a computer person, so I hope you don't mind me asking.Thanks, JohnSimply install the current version over the BETA 3. Don't forget the close all open programs.
John O Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Would it better if I installed the 2.1a over what I have with the PC in the safe mode?Thanks.
wizardofwindows Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 safemode not neccessary just run 98se then click on sp2.1 exe and sit back and prepare to be amazed.
John O Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I turned off the Spy Sweeper and AVG and installed the SP2.1a and there was no apparent problem.There was a portion of the install where I was asked what to install in a series of boxes to check off. There were two already checked, so I just picked them and ran the install.
Graz Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 It's a great update, and thanks to the authors for doing it. I've noticed a leap in performance when opening programs and much less errors. I'm sticking with 98SE, even when I get a new computer - I really do not like XP! (the 'updated' find files, no msdos, speed, newbie style interface and poor security all put me off!)Now, there are a few issues that I've noticed ever since installing the SP, neither of which are that serious but all the same a little annoying:I can't restart the computer now without it hanging on the "Shutting down" screen. It's only with restarting - shutting down works fine and so does hot restarting - but a normal restart completely hangs the computer on that screen. Any advice on this?For some reason, also, I've been having problems with Media Player. Sometimes, part through a song the sound just stops and I have to stop and play it again to get it going. Also, once or twice, the sound cuts out and all other sounds refuse to play, forcing me to restart the PC. I think this is just with WMP, though, as I have Classic Media Player which seems fine, so I'll try reinstalling WMP and telling you what happens. Any ideas on the first point? Any help would be appriciated, thanks!
Dave-H Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 Gape, I've been using your Service Pack for 98SE for the last several versions, now 2.1a, and thank you so much for producing it! Just one minor query.I've noticed that since installing the Service Pack, the "General" tab on the "My Computer" properties no longer shows any detail about my machine's processor.Is this due to a problem in the replacement shell dlls?Thanks, and Happy New Year!Dave.
the_guy Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 This is a problem with sysdm.cpl 4.10.2224. It fixes the negative value bug, but it also prevents the processor information from showing. Petr put up a modified version of this file a little while ago, not sure where, but I have a copy of it. I will post it if the original cannot be found.the_guy
