On this Microsoft webpage - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239937/kb/239937 It tells me about the availability of "Microsoft Windows 98 Customer Service Pack". I am assuming that this is a big all-in-one update to Windows 98, which is what I am after. In the above-mentioned article, it says -

Brian Livingston wrote one of the first and best series of Windows books beginning with Windows 95 Secrets in 1995. Since introduction of XP, he has consistently pooh-poohed Windows 98 users who have refused to switch and who cite the speed and reliability of it and the lack of worry that some...

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 power button, the PC...

Hello, 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 day it...

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 a wok, (aka: WokTenna),...

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 longer get Windows Update service. @#$%^&*(. Found and used Autopatcher98.Dec_Full_Final.exe. It has updates and tweaks. Now when my computer...

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.) -- J. P. Gilliver | Tel. +44 1634 203298

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 - and...

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 enough the PC...

I have a cable connection to my Dell XPS T450 desktop, windows 98se, 450 ram, Explorer 6.0. My virus scanner ran out of life while I was in the hospital and rehab., so I deleted it and got Avast. It worked fine for a couple of days. I think I pressed a button to have it scan while I was online....

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 running. But...

Can it be done as in W2k/VP and how?

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. Well, in anticipation of using it SOMETIME it was downloaded. Finally got to install it and wow, it is nice to have this program for W98! Wish I could...

Why am I seeing over 300 duplicated posts in this NG!? It seems the first post in many threads are showing the initial post TWICE. In some case, entire thread segments are duplicated. My inclination is to reset the NG. But I must go now-- no time to even investigate! The posts are identical, but...

I posted something similar but not so clear so I am reposting.I have Office XP. In one excel file I went to find to find a certain entry and found about 301 cells. How can I copy all at once all these cells and paste in a new file? Sol
