Besides, I felt it would be kinda fun getting an old computer running beautifully with an even older OS. I'm running Need for Speed at all high quality with no lag! I'll give you my conclusions for what they are worth. The old computer I mentioned when I upgraded to Windows XP had hardware for which there were no suitable drivers. I remember having to replace the sound card. In other words going back to W98 would quite likely have posed driver problems too.
To run W98 I'd say buy an unmodified computer still running the OS. Generally speaking old games are poor fare by today's standards. You will find it easier to get old software running in Windows XP than sorting out a working installation of Windows I think that Diablo 2 will run in XP with some tweaking. It won't work for some of them though. I did actually get my favourite game running in this way and it was far more stable than it ever was in W The problem is that there are copyright issues.
At best it's a grey area. I can see no problem with stating that this possibility exists but any details would be promptly removed from the forum. You could buy an ancient games consul for practically nothing and do it legally for zero effort.
I've just had a success with Microsoft's Pandora's Box which is a classic puzzle game written for W The solution is legal. I include this as an example of how older software lacks the support it deserves. I came across loads of posts from people who couldn't get Pandora's Box going but clearly some were able to run it in XP and Windows 7. The Microsoft website was no help. Eventually I found references to a patch for the game and links to Microsoft Support.
People lived with that for quite a while. It's a lot slower than you may be used to, but that's the most straight-forward way to get a driver for your USB device installed on the Win98 box.
If you can't or are not allowed to use dial-up and can't use the CD drive, does the Win 98 computer have a floppy drive? Check that no host adapter appears with a yellow or red symbol under the SCSI controller's entry. If there is, continue with the steps below to help determine the problem. Either double click on the SCSI controller's entry or click once on the plus sign to the left of it.
One entry for each host adapter installed in the system is displayed. Select an entry, then click on the Properties button.
The Device Status message should read: This device is working properly. If any other messages appear, continue with the steps below to get more information on the problem. If any other messages appear, select each message and click on the Details button. This provides more information on why the system is not performing optimally and methods to correct the problem. If no problems are encountered in the above steps, the new driver is operating properly. Otherwise, consult Troubleshooting for additional information.
To start this utility, follow these steps:. MPD drivers, support for auto request sense is enabled. Auto request sense is a feature of the adapter where certain device information is obtained automatically without system control, thereby increasing overall performance. However, some third-party peripheral drivers do not support the use of auto request sense, resulting in perceived device failures.
To allow these devices to operate properly, use the Device Manager on a per adapter basis to disable the auto request sense feature. Use this procedure for disabling auto request sense support: Click on the Start button. Select the adapter desired, and then click on the Properties button. Click on the Settings tab.
If there is already an entry displayed, type at the end of the existing entry. Be sure to include the semicolon at the end. If the entry was changed, the System Settings Change dialog box appears. After the system reboots, auto request sense is disabled for the selected adapter.
To re-enable auto request sense, delete the entry that was made above. If other entries exist, be sure to leave them intact. MPD drivers. Some legacy non-SCAM peripherals have problems with the SCAM protocol, resulting in the device either not being seen by the operating system or not working correctly. MPD driver whichever is controlling the selected adapter.
One entry for each host adapter installed in the system appears. After the system reboots, SCAM is enabled for the selected adapter. To disable SCAM, delete the entry that was made above.
Disabling Domain Validation Support. MPD driver is installed, support for domain validation is enabled. Domain validation is a feature of the adapter where the data transfer speed between the adapter and each target is tested at system boot. If the test fails, the data transfer speed is reduced and the test repeated until a supported data transfer speed is found. However, some older SCSI devices do not properly support the standard SCSI commands used during this testing, resulting in the system not booting or a device being not available.
Therefore, to allow these devices to operate properly, the domain validation feature can be disabled using the Device Manager for all adapters controlled by the respective driver, or in the SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility on a per device basis.
MPD driver:. MPD driver, then click on the Properties button. If there is already an entry displayed, type the above at the end of the existing entry. Be sure to include the semicolon. Click OK to exit from the Settings tab. Click Yes to restart the computer.
After the system reboots, domain validation is disabled for adapters controlled by the. To re-enable domain validation, delete the entry that was made above.
