Hello all, I have been trying to troubleshoot this issue and can't seem to figure it out. I am not well versed in troubleshooting BSOD errors as I have been extremely lucky in that I have never had them since using win 98 :) Basically what happens is every time I resume from a sleep (hybrid...

I have a computer running Win98 SE which is part of a LAN with two Win 7 and two Win XP PCs. I can access the drives/files on the WIN98 PC from all the PCs in the net but I cannot access the drives/files on the WIN 7 PCs from the WIN98 PC. Access to the WIN XP PCs from WIN98 is no problem. I...

I have three different OSs on my network: W7, XP, and 98SE. My email program, Pegasus, is installed on the 98SE. I can run it on the XP computer with a shortcut that targets the address: "\\Tower\D\Program Files\PMAIL\winpm-32.exe" The same address run from W7 generates the following error...

I wish to obtain a copy of Windows 98SE so I can play my older games that don't work on Windows 7. Most notably Jane's Combat Simulations USAF. Microsoft is no longer allowed to distribute Windows 98 because of some deal they made with Sun Microsystems (apparently you can get OSes like MS-DOS...

Link Removed and weird things are happening, like as above. The bottom right shows me as not online, and a utorrent icon hiding away behind. And in the main screen, it shows all my boxes etc have reverted to what looks like windows 98 style. Also I can't defrag because task scheduler isn't...

I am trying to move some files from my current computer which has windows 7 to a much older box with windows 98 on it. I tried my flash drive but that needs drivers and I'm not connected to the net to get them. I decided on creating a CD, but windows prompts me after I insert the blank CD and...

Can a standard installation CD (with installation key) be used to install a virtual OS with Virtual PC or VM Ware Player to a Windows XP or Windows 7 computer, or is a virtual appliance a special version of an application and necessary for a virtual machine? I want to install a Windows 98SE, or...

Hi, I'm new to W7. When I create a new folder on another network place (usually my server), the pc times out because it creates more than one folder. If I don't do ctrl+ald+del quick enough it creates hundreds of empty folders! The other network places are a mixture of XP, win 98 and win 95 PCs...

I just installed it on a machine for the hell of it. Problem is the computer is a HP Pavilion a343v and it came with XP so I can't find any drivers on the HP site that are compatible with it. The resolution is super big so is there a stand VGA driver I can get? Also does anyone know of a good...

As you may know, you cannot make a clean install of Windows 7 upgrade on a formatted disc. You can only install this OS on a hard disc that has a previous version installed (XP, Vista, whatever). So, if you bought a Windows 7 UPGRADE (not the full version), you will have no luck just popping the...

hey guys, i wanted to ask that if the large host file slowing the machine issue,inherent in Win 7,because it wasnt the issue in Win98.One would think,they have overcome the problem. thanks K'dude

Hello, my company uses an old accounting program that was designed for Windows 98. I have had this run on everything up to Windows XP SP3. Now that I have upgraded my computer, I can't get is to run in Windows 7. I have tried all of the usual compatability things, but I am not making any...

Greetings, all! Just for jollies, I'm trying Windows 7 on an ancient homebrew I built back in 2003 and change. It has a decent (for the times) HD (150g) and reasonable memory (2g) and the processor isn't bad (1.75mhz), but it's the original ABit motherboard and cards. The point of this is...

I don't know what I did, but I must have changed some settings because I no longer can see the window previews from the toolbar and when I try to change the color scheme, I get the Windows 98 version of color selection. When I hover over icons of open programs on toolbars, I only get text, no...

I still have the old nice MS game Midtown Madness 2. Now it works perfectly on XP even though it's thought to be used on Win98. I tried it on VIsta but it doesn't really work. At least not that much that it's fun to play. So I'm gonna test it on Win7 when I get the BETA. I'll write details here...
