Default Windows Protection Error

Is this that same new machine? Like I said, it won't run Win98, NOT
EVER. The missing files are drivers files and the manufacturer of your
new mobo did not and will not ever make Win9x drivers for that board.
This is what I was trying to tell you last time until you reminded me
that you were using VPC. THAT will usually work on new hardware to run
Win98. But without VPC, forget about it.

No, it isn't, Gary.....it's a friend's but you're right.
It's that same problem, and I guess I ought to "bind it
as a reminder between my eyes". BTW, I guess that also
applies to ME, which has to have the 98 running, to upgrade
from, right?
