Gateway Crappy Bios Settings

I have a Gateway 700mhz computer. It came with a blank formatted hard drive. My other 700mhz computer died (bad motherboard). I am mostly just transferring everything to this Gateway. My memory, video card, sound card and drives. I put in my master HD with Win98 and all my data. (I've done this before and it works, just need to change a few drivers). Anyhow, the HD I am putting in, is a Western Digital 20gig. The computer used to have a Quantum 20gig installed. When I go into the bios CMOS settings, the computer insists that I still have the Quantum drive installed. It's not only unplugged from the data cable and power cable, but it's removed from the cas…

Add/Remove Programs

I have a HP Pavilion 4509 and a 6511 preloaded with Windows 98 SE. The 14" Monitor is a HP Pavilion M50 CRT model No D5258A. I had downloaded and installed a Security Update KB891711 from Windows Update website and then I thought that this update caused a problem and so I removed it from the "Add/Remove Programs". I had restarted the PC and to my dismay, I found that ALL other listed programs had simply disappeared - but NOT the programs themselves! What could have caused this and how could I restore it - in the list? Thanking you Capt K Ripendran

Useful add-on for Windows
by Guest Roger Fink- 4 replies
- 520 views
Most '98ers have probably made their peace with this, but for anybody who, like myself, continues to be dumbfounded that Microsoft elected to put the New Folder function in the Windows Explorer drop down menu rather than the context menu, "New Folder Here" is a nice freeware fix: http://www.downloadjunction.com/product/store/288/index.html I know download sites like this one are frowned upon, but the author of this fix, on his own site, has recently elected to bundle it with several others in a larger download. Two days after installation in W2K, and after one virus scan and spyware scan, no problems or unintended consequences to report. If you determine t…

Clipboard Help
by Guest V Harris- 2 replies
- 517 views
When using CTRL + C, I can copy selected text to the clipboard. But then I need to select other text then, rather than REPLACE text in the clipboard, I need to ADD that selected text to the clipboard. Is there a way to do this in Windows - like is there a power user feature or something? If not, what is a good utility that I can use like clipboard that will allow me to add highlighted text. I do need something that will allow me to use a hotkey combination (like CTRL + C) to copy and paste the text as there are thousands of bits of information to extract from a document, so switching back and forth between windows to copy then paste will be unnecessari…

Windows default settings
by Guest CmpTch9- 4 replies
- 547 views
Greetings! I have a question about the desktop settings in Wondows 98. I have several old machines which have had all the settings changed, such as the mouse pointer style, system font, background, screen saver, etc. Is there a quick way to reset them all to Windows defaults with one or two clicks? Maybe a registry setting or something, so I don't have to open all those settings one at a time on each of my 25 machines? Thanks, Jay

PC 98 Modem on W2K?
by Guest W. Watson- 11 replies
- 702 views
I may find this out soon enough, but I bought an older PC with a modem in it. I replaced the w98 on it with W2K I had no idea what it was yesterday, when I tried firing up a standard modem. No luck. I opened up the PC and found it had a 3Com USR 56K DFVJ CPCI PC98. The PC98 designation got my attention. Maybe it won't run under W2K?

Hi all, I have a couple of problems that are probably related. 1. when I go to device manager in system in control panel, I see a couple of yellow marks next to the primary and secondary controller channels of the ide interface. 2. when I go to the place that shows performance configuration in system under file system, it says the C and D drives are in compatibility mode. The computer is an older Compaq Presario 5000 with a 15G IDE hard drive partitioned as C: 12G and D: 3G. Any ideas? thanks, charles......

Hi Problem has just started. When I switch off down the computer from the shut down options, the screen closes, but the hard drive continues to run, the system then reboots normally back onto the desktop. It will shut down if I hold the switch in. It does not seem to be related to any change in software. I have checked the usual places for answers but none seem to fit this "simple" problem Any ideas? Thanks in advance Wombat Eats, roots and leaves.
