#1 Post by T3f4l » Fri Feb 03, 2017 6:53 pm

Anyone got the above, ideally windows 98?
Or anyone willing to upload a copy of them, I have my own Windows key etc but my 98se install CD wont work, it does the first part until it starts doing plug n play and then disconnects the cd drive :(

I think I have almost any windows setup disc you can imagine and would be willing to make .iso files or even burn discs if yours doesn't work out.

Also, if you want to upgrade, you may consider windows 2000 or XP, both I can supply with COA. You might also consider something called "MicroXP", it's a stripped down version of XP that works on systems that wouldn't otherwise run xp. I haven't used it in over 10 years, but found it worked great, but did have some issues installing modern apps, but portable apps seemed to run very well.

Good Luck with reviving your classic.

ps. DSL ([censored] Small Linux) is also worth a look.

Thanks all, finally got it working with an ISO supplied by Terminator, A few drivers were a bit odd so needed to mess around but its now running!
I went with 98 because I am using it as a Dos gaming machine!

Thanks all!
