Recommended Posts

Recommondation for new AP Version:

Java 6 Upd.7 , IE 950759 Cum. Upd. ,OE 941202 , DST Upd 951072

replace msimg32.dll (98) with Win ME msimg32.dll (so runs Opera 9.51 ) see MDDCU300E ,Big Open Box Upd , MDCUPL ,New Oleupd from MDGX ,New KernelEX 0.3.5 ,BigHDD 3.0 and i found this updates 274548 ,wdmmdm.exe are not in AP

PCHIO98 , Q313829fix -- MDCU300

Replace Files with newer regsvr32.exe / extrac32.exe / extract.exe /msdaipp.dll / msconv97.dll /msvcp60.dll /advpack.dll /vpowerd.vxd

from SESP30 Beta3

Better Installationroutine for:

Tools9x ,Service 9x , 2to4 Digit ,TTFPack ,HHupd always i must install this by hand

New Version of Infrarecorder is out 0.45 ; bad tool i must say better replace this crap or let it away

Flash 9.0.124 ; Shockwave 10.2.23 runs Stable

New Karens Directory Printer 5.2.9

New Anvir Task Manager Free 5.2

New NIS Time 3.31

i suggest Klugscheisser 3.2 better Scanreg Tool or Autostartmanager 1.45

it is already end of the July, no new stable nor beta version to download. auto-patcher starts (if not worse) to loose "update" competition...

The new version is coming very soon, the upgrade pack is about 25 megs (will upgrade your AP from dec 07 to june 08)

Welcome back soporific. :)

I'm dual-booting Linux and 98SE again, no Vista/XP, so I'm interested in this stuff again. Shockingly I discovered while setting 98SE up that I had never downloaded the full December 2007 final, only the RC and the upgrade. No matter, as the upgrade to final worked fine.

I just toggled off the Java, Flash, Shockwave, and a couple of other things I install myself with later versions and it worked fine. Added a couple of things from the manual installs folder and I was off and running.

My previous problems with getting 98SE stable had to do with both the crappy SATA controllers on my board (so I now use only PATA and deactivate the SATA controller in the Bios) and my finding that Via Hyperion 4-in-1 4.56v is actually the latest one I can use that correctly sets things up on this board on 98SE. No more need to play with manually installing the Via AGP driver to get AGP going as 4.56v sets it up fine automatically. And so far no more mysterious IOS errors that were probably caused by either the SATA or Via driver problems.

I'm kind of afraid of using any later Internet Explorer Cumulative Upgrade package than the one installed by Auto-Patcher because I use ZoneAlarm free for my firewall and I've read that the later IE Cumulative packages cause ZoneAlarm to disconnect from the internet totally. I haven't seen any discussion about this here. The only thing offered by Zonelabs is a new version solving the problem but that version doesn't support 98SE.

I'd love to see some guru here somehow patch up the Internet Explorer updates in that package so they won't cause the problem.

Hi soporific! :hello:

Glad you could drop in after floating around in the Ether!

Let's get 9x rolling for 2008!

We need lots of testers for new updates (and free software add-ons), since some updated files this year have issues with some software or Windows 98SE itself.

The more input from people, the better the next AP updates set will be!

So, everyone get testing MDGx's currently listed updates and report!

Hi, Eck! I can confirm that Via Hyperion 4-in-1 4.56v is the latest version suitable for 9x/ME. As for SATA, perhaps your controller is not so crappy after all: the point is the latest drivers that work for 9x/ME with Via 6420 or 8237 SATA controllers is way older than that! The right choice is VIA_VT6420VT8237_SerialATA_V220E.zip, which is not easy to find. But now there is a link to get it here.

Yeah, you know I ran XP fine with the newer Via Hyperion SATA drivers when I was using a SATA hard drive on this board. Linux also ran fine with it. But 98SE just would eventually peter out with crazy errors until I stuck a PATA drive in here and turned off the SATA controller.

Thanks for the link. I probably have that older driver somewhere but now I'll just burn it for safe keeping. I likely had been using that SATA driver way back when I was using my ASUS A7V880 and dual-booting 98SE and XP. It worked fine back then. You're probably right that the newer drivers had a hand in my 98SE frustrations over a couple of years. Via claimed 98SE compatibility in its literature but they obviously must have stopped testing on 9x in the newer versions.

Anyway, I'm happy 98's running just fine now on the board. Those continual "error loading device IOS, real-mode memory allocation failed" 98SE failures drove me crazy for a long time.
