Unable to get 98 machine on the network
Thanks for the links. I tried going to windows updates from another machine,
but it wants to automatically detect the machine I'm on not the affected one. I get bit by this a lot. How do you download updates for other computers?

Unable to get 98 machine on the network
Sorry Penny, I should have added another potential way to get to files.
Once on the normal Windows Update site, you can [or should be able to] go to the Catalog, choose a different OS and download files directly for that OS. -- MEB _______________ |
