upgrade your OS and make things alot easier on yourself. I'd suggest winxp pro sp2

Serien · October 2004

you see where it says windows 98?

get rid of that crap

lol

Theely · October 2004

I'll agree with the rest. Get rid of 98 first. Get 2000 Pro or XP Pro. If you get XP Pro, you might want to stay with sp1 and not get sp2 yet. I think there a big prob with it when it comes to gaming. I heard something like that but really looked into it (I have 2000 Pro)

SP2 is wonderful and causes no problems to gamers.

VITAMADNESS · October 2004

SP2 on Windows XP does cause problems for certain games...it is documented on Microsofts website...BUT....it is only because the services pack screws with the XP firewall and locks down certain TC/PIP ports and they are easily opened up again.

Beta'd: Neocron, Planetside, ShadowBane, Horizons, City of Heros, Saga of Ryzom, Lineage II, WoW Stress Test

Played: EQ, Shadowbane, DAoC, SWG, Anarchy Online, Asherson's Call 2. Earth and Beyond, City of Heros, EQ

Playing: the waiting game for EQ 2 and WoW hehe
