I used to be able to watch videos on YouTube in spite of the messages telling me my browser (Firefox) was not supported. (That was even before upgrading to Flash 9.0.277.0.) But now, if I try to watch any video on YouTube, using either Firefox (2.0.0.20) or Opera (9.27), my entire system slows to a...

Hi Andrzej, Thanks for the Aida tip. I downloaded Aida32 and ran it. I am very impressed! The device is a Trident CyberBlade i! AGP (51). Also, this program provides the mother board ID, plus a lot more! It also provides a driver download web site!! I will give it a try...

I'm re-posting this, but adding microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion to the group list in case someone else there has other ideas. wrote in alt.windows98: My brother-in-law's brother has an old Dell computer with win98SE on it. For the past couple months, when he...

Hi Andrzej, I forgot something in my recent reply. It is possible that a Trident graphics chip is present, but it would be on the bottom of the mother board. To see the bottom requires extra work, and I would have to remove the mother board. John Previous Reply:

Hi Andrzej, If you are correct about that chip being a RAM chip, then my Google search provided me with the wrong information regarding that particular chip. One "hit" indicated it was a "graphics" chip. I did not see any chips with "Trident" on it, but I wrote down numbers that are on...

Hi, I was given a Global desktop PC with Windows 98se. In the Display Properties, "Settings" tab, I am unable to change the "Screen Area" to a higher setting (stuck on 640 X 480). I have no trouble changing "Color" resolution from 256 Colors, "High Color" (16 bit), or "True Color" (24...

Hi Buffalo, Unfortunately the person that gave me this Global desktop computer has passed away. I can't ask him for information regarding the Trident driver. UPDATE: I opened up the computer and found the display IC. It is an Elite MT # LP61G6464BF-5.

Hi Buffalo, Thank you for all your suggestions. Since this is a spare PC, I am in no hurry to resolve this issue, but I will post the results. Again, Thank You, John On Sat, 22 Jan 2011 10:03:12 -0700, in microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion

Hi Buffalo, There was no "place" in the display properties to check or change the display refresh rate on this Global PC. I downloaded the Trident display Win98 driver from http://members.driverguide.com, but it didn't "work". After a reboot, the display driver was no longer...

I'm re-posting this to mpw98.gd because ron@home apparently didn't bother to do that. He mentions nothing about the on-board battery of the PC in question. A used power supply shouldn't cost more than $20. wrote: Hi again

I am doing a clean install of windows 98SE from C hard drive. I copied only Win98 folder from the 98SE installer CD to it. Is that win98 folder all I will need to install everything? This particular computer had a lot of add-ons in the PCI and ISA slots, which I took out temporarily. I have the...

It's now nearly 130 hours since I last rebooted Windows. Usually I reboot about once a day, on average. Sometimes it's because things start to go badly wrong (e.g. Explorer becomes erratic), but more usually it's only because the sound card's output channel develops an occasional annoying popping...

I'm looking for a small freeware application to add annotations to photos, ie arrows, boxes, text, circles, ovals. It only needs to handle JPEGs. Resizing, cropping, and rotation would be nice but not essential. I've found apps that run on Win XP and Linux, and ones that capture screenshots, but...

I want to clean off with fdisk and format a master hard drive and reinstall windows 98se. Can I copy the cab files from the slave and have them do the setup (install to the other volume (master)? And if so what dos command do I use to do it

My eyes are failing me, and I need to increase the text size on the screen to avoid squinting, at least without putting on my new glasses that give me a headache because I'm not used to them yet (or so the eye doctor insists). I'm using my win98 system to display FAQs from Gamefaqs.com...
