Support for AVG Free after August 2008 1 2
by Guest pixturesk@gmail.com- 44 replies

While checking out the Grisoft site for some AVG Free information (I have been using AVG Free for a couple of years), I came across the following information: Important notice "Some older operating systems such as Microsoft Windows ME, Microsoft Windows NT and Microsoft Windows 98 will only be supported until August 2008 as a minimum". So I asked about this on the AVG Free forum, got the following response: "I can say that currently Win95 isn't officially supported but AVG Free still works on it... but I can't say that will also be true for Win98-WinME at the point that Grisoft does drop support for them. I can say that most ( not all ) of the othe…

Strange Content.IE5 behavior 1 2 3
by Guest Eugenia- 50 replies

Hi. W98se. My Content.IE5 Folder and subfolders took on a peculiar attribute. I was looking for something in there and noticed that it no longer resembled the regular appearance, where one might find 10 or more alphanumerically named subfolders. It looked like the Content.IE5 that one might find in WinXP. i.e. - generally having roughly 4 alphanumeric subfolders. I've tried everything: DOS Deltree - which still ends up giving me the same result - and then simply deleting those folders (Temporary Internet Files / Cookies / History) from another operating system. Same issue persists. :-( Even after performing the Deltree of Tempor~1 in DOS, once rebooted…

Dual Boot woes
by Guest Mike- 1 reply

Hi folks- I've got a problem. I had Win98 and Win2k together on seperate partitions on the same drive and both were working. Boot manager was working, etc. I can't remember the chain of events, but I ended up running fdisk /mbr and lost Win2k. Win98 booted only after that. Then, I reinstalled Win2k. But, I never got back Win98 in the boot menu. I'e tried adding Win98 to the boot.ini and get the error about ntoskrnl.exe being missing or corrupt. Well, I don't think it needs to be on the Win98 partition, does it? My partition layout is as follows: Primary - win98 first logical in extended - win2k second logical - win2k swap rest of the logicals are for…

I am trying to use a spare power supply as a supplemental power supply. There is no room in the case for a second power supply so I put it outside the case and threaded the cables through the back of the computer case then attached the cables to unattached hard drives. Then, I turned-on the spare, external, power supple then turned-on the internal power supple but the spare, external power supple did not turn-on. What should I do?

No programs shown in the Install/Uninstall list in Windows 98SE

Here's a problem that Glen Ventura (glee) and Alan Edwards (both MVP's) are familiar with but the usual solutions they (and Microsoft) have suggested in former posts just don't seem to work for me. Multiple problems with my computer occurred after I did a Norton Utility operation to clean up my slow-running computer. I've solved most of the problems but a few critical programs still will not run, or run properly including my Outlook 98 and the Control Panel utility for Add/Remove programs. How did I get this far??? Seems that the Microsoft solution for the Outlook 98 problem (Error Message: "An OLE registration error occurred. The program is not cor…
