As mentioned in the MPW98.disks.general, I just replaced the HD in my old 98 machine. However, in spite of formatting it with the /s swtich, XCOPYing everything, and doing sys D: for good measure, I couldn't get the comptuer to boot. Not having a CD for this OEM install, I went to...

Is there a list somewhere of registry entries for owner's names? I am using an OLD laptop to run Microsoft Word 97 in night school until they can fix the scheduling screw-up and put us in a lab. This laptop was given to me over 5 years ago by my mother's cousin when she upgraded. I changed the...

Hi, I've got win98SE thats worked for quite awhile, although recently when I boot up and the modem is plugged in the USB port, the computer hangs right after the win98SE splash screen disappears. I then have to turn the computer off and boot into safe mode and shutdown, unplug the modem,...

I'm going through the throes of reinstalling 98SE on this machine (the previous stable clean working instance of which was trashed on uninstalling Avast!). I have now got most apps/drivers reinstalled, and need to reinstall some TrueType fonts. WinHelp (1) says: To add a new font to your...

I'm having a brain fart here configuring some file types. I'm trying to make an option to "Open with Office" on several different file types, so they will keep their defaults but let me open them directly to Office when necessary. I seem to remember that there was a faster way to do this than...

The CMOST battery in an old laptop of mine is dead. I need to be able to open & edit Word documents away from computers once a week for the rest of the month. It's not worth it to shell out several hundred dollars for a new laptop when this is the first time I've needed this one in years. Is there...

I have a seven year old computer which is currently running Windows XP Pro I want to wipe it and put Win 98 on it so that some of the older children's CD's will run on it. I have a legal Win 98se CD but unfortunately I do not have the key or start-up disk! What would be the best way to remove...

I had a few custom things set up so that I could open .DOC files in Wordpad by default, or right click and choose "Open with OpenOffice". I just decided to move my office suite from the installation of Windows 95 under Virtual PC on my old Powermac 6500 to a Windows 98SE computer so I could try to...

What type of antivirus software do people using 98 use now that Norton and AVG no longer support 98? My 98 machine still outperforms my XP significantly.
