Hi Alicia All of those files are hidden system files and the /h switch allows xcopy in a DOS box to copy them. I just had to look that up...
Christer, I just stumbled across this page/swap file guide over on Adrian Wong's site. Don’t know if you’ve seen it but I think it is quite...
Your bios gives USB FDD as a boot option so it should work. How did you make the floppy? Did you make it an MSDOS startup disk, or just format it...
If you've just built the machine or replaced the floppy drive then it could be that a ribbon cable plug is round the wrong way.
Won’t cause any problems running on Selective Startup Galaxytec. All my machines are always set like this and I’ll think you’ll find the...
Yeah Christer, this machine is XP Home. Other is Pro and sure enough tasklist is already there. I regularly forget they are different because...
Perhaps try this http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c680a7b6-e8fa-45c4-a171-1b389cfacdad&DisplayLang=en...
Sorry don’t know about the CD, but you can download them all from here http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/corporate.asp Or try this...
Sorry stelliger, I misread your post. You want to do a fresh install of 2K rather than upgrade the existing OS on the laptop. Otherwise why would...
A lot of malware can generate random names for itself so that it is unique to your computer, so you won’t find any references to it on the net. If...
Thanks Jim, that was the reason, the Tasklist program was not on my machine. It shows the same 9 processes as listed in TaskInfo and shows the 17...
I always bookmark free things I come across and I’ve just had to trim my FreeFirewall folder. Surprised to find OutPost and Look’n’Stop also...
Hi Christer That "˜tasklist /svc’ command does not seem to work for me, I get "“ ‘tasklist’ is not recognized as an internal or external...
I still use Kerio 2.1.4 in both 98 and XP. As a simple rule based firewall it is still hard to beat, but you do have to know what you are doing...
Boot.ini, ntldr and Bootsect.dos are all now needed to boot 98. That’s because 2K changed 98’s boot sector to boot ntldr instead of 98 itself. The...
Quiz….Don’t delete those 2K files before you fix the bootsector with the 98 startup floppy – you won’t be able to boot 98 if you do. I’ll be back...
Have you ran scandisk or chkdsk to look for bad sectors on the drive, or tried a new ribbon cable? This bootable CD...
If you copy the NT4 CD to a folder on the hard drive, when 2K asks to see it you should be able to browse to it. If your upgrading Win98 then...
Hi Hive, the full 2K disk will do an upgrade, start it from inside Windows and you will get that option. However you should be aware of the many...
BillyBob, when upgrading 98 to 2K Microsoft say to start the upgrade from inside Windows - so no problems with things in memory or having to...
Separate names with a comma.
