O čem je toďten plk: xp on older systems
I don't know if this was addressed already... but you don't want to try XP unless you have at least 64 MB of RAM. Even then, it is very slow - also MS recommends 300MHz processor or better. W2K might be a better option for older systems.

O čem je toďten plk: 98 and XP together
Přetvořeny oževatelem danoschek (9. řína 2004, 13:16:26)
it's possible ... a bit twisted since 98 does not understand the bootloader of xp ...
easiest way is having two partitions on your harddisk, you got to install w98 first.
2 GB for 98 plus 5 GB for xp is about lower limit ... once xp is installed you'll be
able to manage further via Computer Management from within the Adminstrative Tools
(e.g. 3rd partition FAT-32 - keep in mind that w98 cannot read NTFS partitions by default) ... ~*~

If your ME is an upgrade version from 98 then there is an uninstall in add remove programs. If it was a full installof ME then you have no other choice but to do a format, then install 98.

8. řína 2004, 14:47:12

No there isn't, Andersp. My old PC had win98, and my new one has ME. I wanted to go back to 98 and got advice from a lot of people, who all said you have to completely remove ME to install an older version of windows. I've since got used to ME, and don't really find it much different than 98, and the system restore has come in handy a few times!

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Windows ME
We have Windows 98 on another (this) computer and its far better, have no problems at all to use all those devices Scarlet mentions.
Beeing old enough to having used computers before Windows i remember a dos-file "autoexec.bat" where you "told" the PC how to start (paths).
My question is: If i install Windows 98 is there a way to "tell" the computer to use Win98 instead of WinME?

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Windows ME
when I ran windows ME, it was the worst windows I ever ran with the most crashes. Many people I knew also went back to 98 for better stability.
Now that I am running XP Professional (actually purchased my first real copy of any windows system) XP is the best I have run. But I would take 98 over ME anyday

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Windows ME
Why go back to win98..?? ME supposedly implements better capabilities than Windows 95 or 98 for applications that appeal more so for home users..

These applications include:

Playing Music
Storing Family Photos
Playing Games
and Accessing the Internet..


It also makes it easier to connect to all kinds of new devices such as..

Internet Cameras
Digital Cameras
Scanners
Read/Write CD-ROM Drives
TV Converters
and Specialized Printers for Color Photo Reproduction.


If any of this may apply to you.. or affect the outcome of software and hardware you currently use.. you might wish to reconsider..

Just a suggestion really.. not meant to control what your outcome is.. :)

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Windows ME
I had that same problem years ago.
Turned out the only way to go back to 98 was to totally reformat the HDD and reinstall from scratch.
Its a bummer but I think it is the only way to do it

You should adjust your firewall settings. It's probably blocking something important :-)

O čem je toďten plk: The Mozilla Foundation today released Firefox 0.10.1, which patches a security hole that was discovered this week.
Přetvořeny oževatelem danoschek (7. řína 2004, 03:04:43)
Users can download a new build of Firefox, wait for the automatic update
to prompt you to upgrade, or install the XPI to upgrade it. Users are urged to
upgrade Firefox. The hole is not known to affect any other Mozilla applications.

I did the google toolbar thing, but as suspected, I don't have 5.5 so didn't get the one bit I really wanted which was the popup blocker :-D

I said for the longest time that I did not want to change either. IE was what I have alwaysed used, I knew how to use all of it's features, etc.. etc...

Now you could not pull me away from Firefox. Pages load faster, don't have to worry about pop ups or active X viruses, etc...

... and if you don't like it, you could always unistall it. PLUS it will not "replace" your current browser, it will just add a second browser option. (I currently have 5 different browsers on my computer.)

FireFox is what I use all the time. Netscape is what my wife uses so when we visit the same sites, our cookies don't mess things us. IE I still use occasionally. Then a couple others which I mostly just use to make sure my websites I create look good in all browsers.

... and Firefox is free!

Id say anyone who loves IE as I do just get the Service Pack 2 for windowsXP as Backoff mentioned. WOW! no more pop ups!!! Plus lots of other goodies

4. řína 2004, 21:58:27

I'm not entirely sure I want to change my browser.. just want to stop the pop-ups, preferably for free :)

Firefox is the way to go. I'm a long time IE user, loved IE, tried Netscape, Opera, etc... always went back to IE.

Firefox is great - Almost eleminated all pop ups (All pop ups?), has a great tab feature so you don't have to open a lot of windows, and it actually loads pages faster!

    Backoff, yep, had a look at that having done a search through this board .. doesn't it only work if you have 5.5 ? not that I'm entirely sure what I DO have ?!? Is there a simple way of me knowing ?
    Is stopzilla any good that you know of ?

    Google Toolbar

    Also if you have windows XP and upgrade to SP2, the new I.E. has a built-in blocker. If you use a browser like Firefox! has a built in blocker as well!
