Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

Thanks Robear. I remember that I hated that critical update notification

because it was set at least in my system to check every 5 minutes for

critical updates and when I changed the time for it to check it would revert

to the previous 5 minute setting after a shutdown and reboot of the computer.

I for one unistalled this update and did not miss it at all since I check

for updates manually at least weekly.

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt on Microsoft's side or some one else's side(s)?

Please elaborate on your statement if you like, Robear. Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day. (I like that last sentence but think I will use . instead

of ! since I do not need to have an exclaimation mark there because a period

will do --- grin)

Well, I prefer os to let you know about what they are doing. Chris Quirke,

MVP is consider having an underlying maintenance operating system of Linux to

help support Vista. His blog on this is really interesting to me at least.

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

Good PCR --- you should consider doing what I do and have a computer that is

not net enabled like my good old 486 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It has MS-DOS

5 and Windows 3.1 and I still use it and especially now since my dual-boot

custom built and upgraded from a gaming PC is down for the count at least for

a while. <grin> I am enjoying playing old games like Zeliard again and it

is so nice with the Roland MT-32 music card that my now deceased grandmother

Nana bought me in the 1980's. The music card was over $700 but I feel it was

well worth it since it still brings me so much happiness today playing the

old DOS and Windows 3.1 games that were mainly from Sierra in my game

collection. The majority of the games are stored in the basement in boxes

but it is great to pull them out and play them on a real PC that was written

for consumers and has a real maintenance operating system unlike NT (New

Technology), 2000, XP Home/Professional, and Vista. My Linux and Apple days

are fast approaching due to the continued foolishness of Microsoft in trying

to save some money by not having the 9x consumer source code continued. Now

you know Gary S. Terhune will be upset with me because I broke my word about

not mentioning the greatness and desire for another 9x operating system. In

addition, think of the children who need to be educated with the older

software that was written for DOS and Windows 3.1 that will not run on XP or

Vista. It would be nice if someone would listen to me for once. Painted Sky

Elementary removed the 98 Second Edition PC's this summer for only XP

Professional PC's with remote access enabled while I was gone for 3 months

and look what happened to them. My Windows ME PC there that had a hardware

glitch preventing it from shutting down properly was the only 9x PC left in

the place. <!>

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

The first one was from a church rummage sale, and I got everything including

monitor, keyboard, EVERYTHING for $10. It had a P24T Pentium Overdrive® @

100MHz, and 16MB RAM. Also a 28.8 modem with W98SE. I had it on the

Internet too.

This machine I got from my mother when she upgraded to a blazing fast new

machine. It has an AMD K6-2 @ 500MHz 384MB RAM, and a 56K modem. Oh, I

can't forget about the 17" monitor. My old machine only had a 14"--wow,

what a difference. I've got a DSL hookup right now. So this machine I got

for free. It originally shipped from Compaq with W98SE, but she had a HD

failure, and by the time I got it it had XP Pro. I still have my W98SE CD

from the machine before this, and someday when I get ambitious I may set up

to dual boot. Only problem is that my wireless router will not work on W98,

so I'd have to go back to dial-up.

Thanks for the response, Curt. So there is no way to get wireless in 98

Second Edition even if the motherboard supports it---- right --- just want to

make sure on this point.

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

I honestly don't think it's a matter of mobo support. My wireless adapter

is USB for one thing, and the specifications list XP as a minimum

requirement. I still think (although I haven't researched it) that there

may be wireless setups out there where 98SE would work though.

You can use wireless on '98, if you can find drivers for it. I have two

laptops here, one running W98SE, and one running W95 (OSR2), both with a

working wireless networkcard.

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

Thanks, Ingeborg and that is what I thought was the correct information. I

appreciate your response. By the way, has anyone yet made PCI-Express

graphics cards available to 98 Second Edition through software drivers or was

the technology already considered too old by the software and hardware

companies?

Re: Win 98 Continues to Get Better Every Year

Thanks for reminding me that Gary S. Terhune needs some peace and quiet. I

am slowly starting to feel so much better about the whole crazy situation. I

was able to laugh with my friend Jared over the phone on Saturday because

everything had gotten too crazy. I went from anger, to sadness/being really

upset, to some depression, to feelings that I must stamp out identity theft

in the world to now healing by being able to laugh about it again. Thanks

again for always being there PCR. I know I can trust you. <smile>

You are welcome. I am glad to hear you ultimately have mastered your

emotions. And I hope you haven't murdered Terhune in the interim! He

isn't around anymore!
