I have installed Windows 98SE on a Supermicro P6SBU motherboard.  When
I go to shut down windows, the screen displays the usual "It's now
safe to turn off your computer" message (I can't remember the exact
wording), but the PC's power remains on.  If I then turn off the PSU

I am trying to fix my dad's computer for him. He is running Windows 98 SE
on an IDE WD 80 GB HD. The computer will freeze up on him at all different
times. It can be on startup, after running for a short while or after a long
while, but does it everyday. Once it starts on that ...

I've seen other posts by people who use the Netgear WG111V2 USB
adapter with Netstumbler under Windows 98 SE, but I just can't get it
to work for me. I currently connect to the internet with another USB
adapter, (made in China, with no FCC ID or brand name), combined with

Have been working on my  GW Essential 667 with 98SE. Some problems so did a
clean reinstall and was adding/updating programs when found out I could  no

Sometimes, on assorted W98 PCs, I've seen an icon on the desktop - looks
like the normal yellow folder icon - with no label. Any idea what it is? (I
have a feeling it sometimes can't be deleted, too.)

I've just bought one of these, and when trying to load the CD (before
connecting the microscope of course), it says I need Media Player 9. If I
try to run the setup.exe that's in one of the directories on the disc, it
says I need Me/2000/X?pVista. (Both where I got it - thinkgeek ...

On a friend's PC, while booting (98), one of the boxes that pops up is
headed something like "Windows Registry Checker"; it says it has found a
problem (I can't remember the exact words) and needs to do a restart, after
which all will be OK; it has an OK button. If pressed, sure ...

I have a cable connection to my Dell XPS T450 desktop, windows 98se, 450 ram,
Explorer 6.0. My virus scanner ran out

worked fine for a couple of days. I think I

For several years I have been dreading the day when my old 300 MHz P11
Windows 98 machine could no longer cut it. That happened recently with the
failure of my master hard drive.  Fortunately, my slave was a bootable clone
of the master so with a jumper change, I got back up and ...

A while back there was a thread on Google Earth, at least I *think* it
was this group. Someone provided a link to a modified v4 program for 98.

got to install it and wow, it is nice to have this program for ...
